Good luck! Let us know how it went! Will it be a 16 hour day for you?

Today's the day! At the moment, I'm just waiting to hear about the Skype hook-up for today's shoot. It may be a bit odd and I have no idea what this will really be like. It will be inconvenient to have to babysit my computer just to be on-call just in case they need to speak to me. Plus there's a 3 hour difference between the shoot location and my shop so, it will be a much later day for me than for them.
I'll let you all know how it went tomorrow!

Marc S. - I'd BETTER be able to pull it off! :)
Marc H. - I'd have to say MOST of the shots I shoot take more than one day to shoot. In most cases I have had to deal with things about the set or the lighting that has changed overnight. That's one of the reasons I swear by shooting with florescent lights, they are the most consistent light source from one day to the next.
I used to take a lot of written notes at the end of a day of shooting so that I'd be sure to remember exactly what I was doing the next day. But over the years, I've learned to just trust that I always do remember and now that we've got frame grabbing software, I CAN'T forget. :)

better make sure you pick a day where you have absolutely no other plans to do it on!
Are you the sort who can leave a shot, go to bed or something, and come back to it later? or do you get each shot done in a single session?

Hey Ron, that's great you are able to help direct the live action aspects. It might help ease your mind once you see how things are progressing and how it's all set up.
Although it's a complex scene, I'm willing to bet you can pull it off. The time is right for this sort of technology to merge with stop motion!
