Show Busy-ness

Very close to shooting now, there has been a hive of activity going on at our workshop getting everything ready for shoot. Casting has now been finalized so we've been getting in touch with everyone who was successful in getting a role and we've been getting them in for costume fittings. Sets are being constructed, weapons and props are being built and costumes are being made.

I've been very busy on the producing side. here's an abridged version of what I've been up to:
- Materials sourcing (went to loads of builders, engineers, recycle centers, second hand shops, farming suppliers etc), finding wood, pallets, sheet metal, steel drums, clothes and other misc things.
- Finding out crew/cast availability
- Adding people to the mailing list/Trello
- Finding additional crew members (for things like hair, makeup, catering, fight choreography
- Working out our PledgeMe budget (in coordination with Lee)
- Looking into booking locations
- Buying thank you tokens for the people who have helped us out
- Tweaking the script
- Organising blocking sessions with actors and the fight choreographers
- Organising the BTS crew
- Sorting out transport for the crew and gear
- Assigning crew roles for on set
- Arranging to book out gear / looking for places we can hire/borrow gear from
- Writing up a credits and thank-you's document
- Misc other things...

Best I get some sleep, still plenty to do this week!
