THE MAKING OF UNCLE LOUIE: entry 27


The Karmobello Production team had a meeting on Friday to discuss the shots for our latest project. It was decided that rain or shine we would be filming on Saturday. We all agreed that the rain could underscore our theme. To pull it off we needed to buy a slicker for the camera and an extra lamp in case the sun was washed out by clouds. We drove to each location, Sunbird Park, Payne Elementary School and Moreland Middle School, once known as Castro Middle School. We looked around and mulled things over. We found a cluster of redwoods with overhanging branches that sheltered the ground and kept it dry. Under these trees would be a perfect place to set up the camera. If we angled it right, we could make the rain look like tears suggesting sadness and hardship
