Unusual Schedules

Over the last few days, we have been back in
Michigan. On Thursday night we filmed down at the set where we filmed “Hard Decisions.” Oddly, the weather was freezing.  

Rebecca and Marilyn’s costumes were not very warm, so between each take, they put on wool coats.   

Besides one small scene, we are not doing any daytime filming on this trip. Our schedule is very “unusual.” We get up around 2:30 PM and eat first breakfast. Then, after working on set construction and film prep for several hours, we have elevensies (at 8:30), after which we start filming at dark. In the middle of the night (roughly 12:30), we bring a bedlunch out to the crew, which they eat during a short break. When filming wraps up at dawn, we make a second breakfast.
