Turning Homeward

Posted by Shannon and Sara Burns at 1:49 pm on May. 16, 2006.

            Today we finished packing up the lodge and reloading our vehicles. It was neat to watch the 411 A.D. British hall turned back into a twenty-first century park building. After everything was in place, we all went out to lunch together. Around the Pizza Hut table, we made a list of all the different …FULL POST



Mr. Quinlin

            This afternoon Tim Quinlin returned for another day of filming. He is Ambrosius’s guard, who also works for Cadeyrn. He played his part well, and we were all thankful that he was so willing to drive the two and a half hours to get to the lodge to film. 
 



Mr. Reahm’s Church

Posted by saraburns at 6:16 pm on May. 14, 2006.

            I really felt like I didn’t get much more than ten minutes of sleep, although it was really six hours. We got up at eight o’clock and went to Jan Reahm’s church in Muskegon. Mr. Reahm told the congregation about the Pendragon Project and prayed for our group. Then he kindly offered to help …FULL POST



Behind the Scenes for the Real Thing

Posted by saraburns at 2:22 pm on May. 13, 2006.

             Today started early for all of us, and when we got up it was still raining. There were many last minute touch-ups to be done before our extras arrived. Some of them had driven over nine hours to get here, but when they arrived, we were ready for them. God also sent Lydia Widdis, Esther …FULL POST



Setting up the Hall

Posted by saraburns at 10:14 am on May. 12, 2006.

            Today is my birthday, and Shannon and I have started to do the embroidery on Wenneveria’s purple dress, which she will wear in the hall scene Saturday. It is not hard to do, just very time consuming. Dad built a large fire in one of the stone fireplaces, and we have been working by …FULL POST



Film Practice

Posted by saraburns at 11:13 pm on May. 11, 2006.

            Today has been spent practicing filming, labeling costumes, and setting up the hall. Aunt Mary arrived at lunch time and brought an entire car full of props and period décor. It is really neat to watch the hall take shape under her guidance.



Nasty Weather

Posted by saraburns at 5:36 pm on May. 10, 2006.

           During the night the rain started to fall and the temperature dropped. The boys’ tent leaked horribly and they got soaked! We now have access to the lodge, so we are moving all the props out of our campers and into the lodge. Since the lodge has no heat, we have little space heaters …FULL POST



Arrival at Camp

Posted by saraburns at 3:11 pm on May. 9, 2006.

            Our van is so full it’s a miracle our van even rolls. This morning Nick packed the camera in the last bit of room behind the middle seats. Things just will not stay organized. There are bags of costumes, coolers, duffle bags, pillows, and the end of a tripod leg spilling through the middle …FULL POST



Packing for our First Shoot

Posted by saraburns at 3:10 pm on May. 8, 2006.

            Today Dad and Peter left with a load of supplies. The camera dolly (which would not fit in the van) and the bedding completely filled the back of Dad’s truck. Tonight they will stop in Indiana at our Uncle Pat’s house, pick up Alex and travel the rest of the way to Pioneer Park …FULL POST
