Tell me about it 'Shift! mad

I would be negligent, if I didn't cut & paste the e-mail I received from my friend in Nashville who volunteered to guide the director, cinematographer & actor (the KJack character referred to) around town to try and get the most out of a day & a half of filming.

To the entire city of Nashville, from the cast & crew of The Shoebox....THANKS!!!!!

Here's the report from Jerry:

"...If I had to sum up the last 2 days in Nashville, several words & phrases come to
mind:Incredible fun, long hours, girls, props, NO sleep, 100's of on-lookers,
action, girls, free beer, gracious business owner's, free shots, very forgiving
police, cell phones, phone numbers, girls, partying, heavy equipment, many
shooting locations, being treated like rockstars (esp. KJack), girls, unexpected
Xtras added to the film (including myself), great acting, audio technitions
(your's truly), what Jose called "our first blooper", girls, girls, girls.

It is amazing at all the little details that are necessary to bring something
like this together that I never even thought of. There is an incredible amount
of thought and planning that goes into something like this; and the rest is
figured out on the spot. We attached a camera to the roof of my car while we
did driving shots of the city. I became aware of just how busy an audio tech
and an overall gopher can be in a movie.

Virtually every business owner welcomed us with open arms when it came to
shooting scenes inside or outside of their establishments. We were granted
access to the roof of a 6 story building to get overhead shots of the city and
KJack walking around. We did multiple takes / angles of every shot... ground
level, up on a ladder, from the left, right, center, ect...

We made illegal U-turns in the middle of Broadway (the main drag) during
prime-time traffic hours & right in front of the police, without any incident
whatsoever.

I took at least 100 pictures that I will go through and post in the next couple
of days. There REALLY is a movie going on here! And the last 2 days validated
the fact that I live in one of the friendliest places in the country and a place
I'm happy to call home.

Now, did I mention all the HOT girls ??????

I think I can finally get some rest...."


Yeah, great Jerry, glad you weren't too bored.

Midnite

Satchel was right. Something is gaining on me.
