I hear one of our people has come down with Pneumonia. Our UPM was sicker than a dog at the beginning of the shoot (I teased the set caught the swine – but it was just a bad cold) and all the crew members got ferouciously ill. Since then, the health of the crew and cast has wavered. Everyone is pulling through great, but it really shows what uncontrolled issues can do. I think we have had three hospital trips now. One -I think it was Ron Ridenour who tore his ACL on the first or second day of shooting. Two – Brittany Murphy was ill. Three – Joseph Mungra has Pneumonia. Well we hope you ALL are better in time for the wrap party.

Photo approvals have come in for actor John Robinson!!! The bad news – most of the photos I have of him feature Shantel VanSanten (co-star) and I have not received photo approvals for her yet! None of Brittany Murphy’s photos have been approved, but honestly she was under the waether and I did not get quality images of her yet. I expect fantastic shots soon!Still waiting on the approvals for Shantel VanSanten, Julian Morris, and James Patrick Stuart.

Day 26 of 28 (only two more days scheduled for shooting – however we may run over a bit.)

Just to let everyone know – I sent in my second round of talent photos for approvals and REALLY hope I can start posting the talent pics soon!

Wow, the shoot schedule for today looks intense. Crew call was at 9am, shoot began at 10am at Spring Blvd. The schedule shows 9 scenes to be shot. James Patrick Stuart, Brittany Murphy, John Robinson and I believe Shantel VanSanten (not on schedule but in one of the scenes) are all on set.

Shoots consist of many interactions between Bill and Susan regarding Christine’s behaviors and a few car scenes that must have been missed before.
