Filming the Studio Edge Series Vol 2 – #3
Since the installation took longer than expected, Chase had to catch up by converting all the scripts into teleprompter safe formatting. Something that he thought he would have more time to do. When we started filming the first day, only 50% of the scripts were converted. Since we shot out of order, due to the viewing angle, he had to process them out of order at the same time. We would film all day, then he would work on the teleprompter at night so we could hop to it the next morning. I hired Terry Babb to be the cinematographer. Between Terry and Chase, they tired to make sure that I was sounding good while working their own task at the same time. Working the teleprompter is difficult. It becomes a dance with the talent speaking. Sometimes it gets away from you and you guess it, we start from the top again. Normally I would take behind the scene shots of the production, but since we were way under staffed, there was not time to even think about it. Here are some shots of the drum room coming together.
