These past two weeks have been pretty hectic with all the filming we’ve been doing and today was our last day. Last week, we had also filmed on the Wednesday and Thursday with 8:30am call times for the crew and we would finish up at around 3pm so they were quite long days and it […]
Read more "Wrap It Up"So today, we had our first day of filming and it was actually pretty good. We had a fairly early call time to allow us enough time to set up all the equipment before the actors arrived. But to say that we were cool, calm and collected would’ve been a great joke but probably not […]
Read more "Film Firsts"With only one week left before we start production, what else could possibly go wrong? Well, fortunately enough not a lot, but there’s always that one thing. And in this case, it’s securing a location. You would think that filming at your own university would be the more practical and time efficient idea considering the […]
Read more "What Could Possibly Go Wrong?"It’s pretty clear from the start where this web series is going to take place – an office. And with all the renovations that’s been happening at university, there were so many places we could check out, and we did when we went location scouting. From the places we looked into, we thought that a […]
Read more "Office Hours"This past week, our cast was revealed to the rest of the crew and I am beyond happy with it. And massive shoutout to our casting director and director for, not only finding the talent, but also finding and creating a diverse cast.

Okay, so after having watched our original cut of the pilot, I didn’t […]
Read more "The Good, The Bad & The Dream"And in sickness and in health, we got it together for the presentation. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to present with my group, but I still got a chance to see some of it and I was with them prior to the presentation helping to prepare so I knew what was being said. And since we […]
Read more "For Better Or For Worse"Because we really were trying to get it together in time for our pitch presentation. We met up with the writers and discussed the plan for the presentation and tried to flesh out the vision for the web series. But before we get to that, something that would have helped with the ‘vision’ part of […]
Read more "Trying Times"So since we didn’t finish filming the entire pilot in the one day like we had planned, we obviously had to come in for a day during our one week break to film one last scene that had all the characters in it. And like last time, we did more or less better than planned. […]
Read more "What Break?"And that we did. We started filming for our pilot episode and we did more or less better than planned. Before the day, we did sort out some things to make sure that we were as prepared as we could be. This meant having a shot list and schedule so we wouldn’t waste time on […]
