Kicks and Cards

Well, this week was a mashup of things. We designed the new business card in preparation for the big push, which has its early start this coming Monday with the event downtown. Soon we get to see if the public at large will remember our name...



Sunday was a smaller group, refining the close combat skills again. We've also been working on what we'll be putting in the bags for the kids on Monday. What do we say about us to the younger end of the audience...? Let the fun begin.

Well, that's about all for this week. Until next time!

Feel the Pain, Part 2

Well, this week was nuts. Unfortunately, only about a third of that was project related. After being called in for my first days as a substitute teacher, I was finally able to turn my focus back to the projects at hand.
First off, the team met as always and expanded their "expressions of pain," selling the impacts of the hits to their persons. Afterwards we discussed the topics of discussion for our characters during the event on the 31st, and tried the costumes on our people who hadn't been there the previous week.
 
 
 
The last script reader has turned in their analysis, and we're going about working through the suggested revisions. Also, several other ideas have come up, so we're trying to frame those in as well. After a couple stagnant weeks, it's good to be moving again.

Well, that's about all for this week. Until next time!

Dress for Success

Greetings one and all!
This week is incredibly hazy in my memory, mostly due to how busy it was, but I'll try to pull a few things out. There was some chatter about doing shorts, possibly with minimal to no dialog. Sunday we had a long costuming session, in preparation for the 31st. We seem to have most of the looks locked down, freeing us up to focus on other details.





Afterwards, we adjourned to the great outdoors for a session on selling the "hit," making the "injuries" you suffer on camera believable.

Well, that's about all for this week. Until next time!

Resolution Roulette

Okay, so maybe not that bad, but it's been an interesting and kinda crazy week. The issues with the one payment processing group have finally been resolved, which is a relief. But, concurrent to that, one of our computers went on the fritz, cutting off access to the footage from a gig. We finally got that fixed, but now it's not recognizing the sound card. Ah... technology...
 
Sunday the team met for some choreography, and to figure out the set dressing for the event on the 31st. We also have a better idea of who can make it, so we can start blocking out the scene.





 There are many more tales from the week, but those are the highlights. Anyway, that's about all for now. Until next time!
