Pre-Explosion Basement

This is my next-to-last day on "G-Force". This set is gonna be blown
up shortly.

Insert Hell

So titled by our Standby Carpenter, on the right. Next to him is one
of the Grips.

We're into the Plate Unit shots, this is pretty dull stuff though. I
found out from the UPM yesterday that Friday will be my last day.

I'll take the week of Christmas off and then I'll look for movie work
or get in some Lifeguarding days.

Future Work

This is one of our upcoming sets.

We still haven't completed principal photography last Friday, nor will
we finish today.

2/3 of the Sound Dept.

Here is our Sound Mixer (Academy Award Winner) and Utility Sound
enjoying a few moments to themselves after lunch.

These guys sat in their truck most of the day before they recorded
sound. I usually hang out with Sound because Lee and his crew have
great stories to tell.

SFX & Standby Painter

Here are Rick and Jesse our Special Effects foreman and Jesse the
Standby Painter. Both guys true professionals. They have been so
helpful and pleasant to work with.

Jesse doesn't remember my name so he calls me 'Medic' all the time.

I gotta tell you this about the movie biz, trying to relate the day-to-
day antics is a lot like trying to explain a dream the next morning.
It is the ultimate 'you should have been there' story.

Have a good day.

Be well

Bojan Bazelli A.S.C.

This is our Director of Photography mugging for the camera. We're
shooting on a small street in Westchester.

My transportation

This is my bike with the "Pirahna Medic" lettering that the Art Dept.
made up for me.

Producer

This is our Executive Producer. He has single-handedly kept us moving
along. He started as a DGA (Director's Guild of America) trainee,
then an Assistant Director, Production Manager, and now Producer.

He knows how to keep the shooting day moving and that's what he's been
doing lately. You see, our DP (Director of Photography), takes a long
time to light a set.

Still Photographer

This is Robert Zuckerman, our Still Photographer. I like to talk with
the photographer on a show because my father was a photographer. He's
still alive but he has Alzheimer's and Parkinson's so he can't shoot
anymore. He was the Still Photographer on "The Ten Commandments" for
C.B. DeMille.

Confab

Latenight con

Confab

Latenight talk amongst the electricians. We started today at 10:00
and we had a one hour lunch so our day is gonna be a long one.

After

This is what the set looked like after the mayhem.

Special FX

This is how the set looked before the visual effect crashes through
the wall.

Cheese Cloth

This was taken with a piece of cheese cloth over the lens. I like the
slight difussion.

Centerpiece

Colorful fruits and vegetables.

We are treated very well almost all the time and today is no exception.
