Day 16: Scrooge and Santa

Ed, along with being a filmmaker and nice-guy extraordinaire, is also a writer (which you probably already knew since I told you he wrote the film...).  

For one of the scenes we shot today we were supposed to be pitching a website design to a potential client (my character - Ben - is a web designer), well rather than spending lots of time building a shiny new website full of bells and whistles, Ed went low-budget and used the website of a book he published last year.  It's called "Scrooge and Santa".  It's a graphic novel (comic book) that's a twist on the classic Scrooge story.  I've only read the preview pages that are available on the website, but I have to say - I'm intrigued.  I may buy myself a copy for Christmas and have Ed sign it.  It'll be worth money some day.  :)

My favorite line from the movie thus far also happened today.  In a scene where I confront my former boss he uses the phrase, "exerting loins of power."  It took everything in me not to laugh every time he said it - and he said it quite a few times.

Also, to make it look like a nice, expensive office, Ed and June set up a big painting behind a makeshift desk.  I'm interested to see how the shots turn out.

Lunch = dinner again cuz it was another night shoot as we were in the warehouse again: Little Caesar's Hot-n-ready.  Loves me some pizza!
Wrap time: 11:30 ish.
