Dogs Of Chinatown

I had no idea we would get so involved in the final scene. I figured I would walk into a room with 8 guys, mow them down, maybe fight one or two, but Micah had something way more elaborate in mind, which is awesome. I did a total of maybe 7 action bits at various […]

First thing today was a scene in the gambling den with Marshall and Trey. Marshall’s this big dude who teaches escrima and kung fu. Really nice guy. Paul slept through all of this at Micah’s. His neck is fine. Went out to a factory and did Annie’s scene. The place smelled awful. I guess the […]

First thing today was a small action bit. Woke up at ten, and drove out to the outside of the studio where I dressed up as a bum and fooled this guy Nick into giving me ten bucks. Not really ten bucks, but I did manage to shoot him dead. We went into the studio […]

Went to Somewhere Else Tavern where we shot a small dialogue scene. They had a dog there that was really cute, and from what I could understand, apparently the dog’s lineage comes from Elvis’s dog. Went to a cool deli that was really colorful. It reminded me of those play places when I was a […]

We had to wait around until 4pm to start the buildup to the fight. Did a little bit of action with Ray and Randal, […]

I drove out to Raleigh. Got to the kung fu school and found that Ray and Brian were having some difficulty getting their fight scene done. Ray busted his nose and had 2 huge bruises. Micah gave me control over the camera and the three of us went to work. It’s all a blur now, […]

The front desk gave us our wakeup call at 7:15 instead of 7:45. Thanks. We wake up and get breakfast in the lobby. Blake drives us to the location out in Raleigh. Turns out we were late, as were practically all the other cast members. I’m not sure if it was my fault or the […]
