I no more than sent along a nice E-Mail to the agency that casted me for that great scene at the Illinois Train place on Saturday and got a great reply back asking me if I could be in Chicago at 5 am on Monday Morning??? For an episode of a new pilot that i am very sorry that I'd never heard of? But of course when work calls and asks you a question like that one, I think we all know what the answer is. So it was very, very early on Monday morning that I was driving back down the Northwest Tollway and here i am writing this EQ Blog entry after about 14 or 15 hours of intense filming! Several new aspects of this shoot including it appears it is now all digital. Never actually noticed what year we totally went from changing the film canisters on the Panavision Camera after about every 20 minutes of film is used up and a Camera Assistant enters the set carrying an ominous big now apparently antique cartridge with a fresh spool of 35mm Motion Picture film. I probably do not have to explain to anybody how digital works and how it now looks like every production is shooting without any film in the cameras. That is unless I go out on a real "Film" project, because these latest projects have all been for television which might be digital, while perhaps a real film might still shoot on film? So exactly how many ARE still shooting on actual film???
Of course there is still a smallish shaker every so often but let us continue the (more or less) all clear thing we have been obvserving with the earthquakes and remember that a major earthquake could still possibly happen just about any time. . . even though you heard it here that the EQ Guy says that might not be the case. Thank-You Again for reading!!! EQ Guy/Moviestar
