Our DP is expecting a new edition to the family soon so we have pushed the shoot to June. This will give Reuben's family some extra time before traveling to Texas for a month.
Locations are just about wrapped up and I am very happy the majority of production will take place in Austin. I think the furthest we'll travel is to New Braunfels.
We have also extended the shoot from 2 to 3 weeks. The more I thought about a 2 week shoot, the more I realized the limited number of days would require more hours resulting in burned out actors and a burned out crew. I don't want to run the production into the ground and I think the added days will give us some time to be more creative instead of just blow through a shot list.
We started the process of casting this past week. The response was a little overwhelming. 5000+ submissions in a couple days. My goal is to hold an audition here in Austin in the next couple weeks and another audition in LA, mid April. I would like to have the film completely cast by the the first week of May so I have at least 1 month to work with the actors.
More to come
