Thank to Twirawr for the heads up!

This is a recent film I worked on in the Salt Lake Valley as the set Still Photographer. It was a 23 day shot which feels like 46 days because of the hours you work by the end. As a set photographer I have accepted my role as “in the way” ” in the reflection” “in the eye line”. It feels like walking on egg shells which naturally one my talents isn’t grace so this was something I had to be hyper conscience about. The Director James Keach is one of the most kind directors I have worked with. If there was simply no room for me and they wanted stills James would run the scene again for me which startled me the first day. I’m used to ninja gorilla style PR photography on set. So that was refreshing. I guess thats the price you have to pay for movie lighting.
By the end of the shot I am physically, mentally exhausted and highly emotional. A long day is now reference to a 19 hour day! A few days before the end, we were doing this daddy dying scene and I had a difficult time being there comfortably. The acting was so natural that I got all chocked up and had to walk off set. I’ve never had that experience on set. After the shot it takes me a few weeks to adjust back to real time with the normal rhythm of my life.The story is interesting. The lead Will Donner is in his pajamas the entire film. Which makes life easy for wardrobe! His character is endearing as you follow him along. Tom Sturridge is a fun actor to watch when its his moment. All in all we had a talented dynamic crew & fantastic cast.
The film is about young man Will Donner (Tom Sturridge) who’s happily unemployed and heads to Hollywood to spend the rest of his life with a 25-year-old actress who also happens to be his childhood girlfriend Emma Twist (Bilson). Nikki Blonsky and Blythe Danner have also been cast in the film. The film is directed by James Keach.
The website is not live that I am aware of. This is the IMDB link that will have data when data is available.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1296898/
There are also more pictures from the film (not Tom related) @ the SOURCE.
I dunno about you guys but Im DIGGING the plaid and chucks! And of course that awesome hat. Also the death scene, I know it’s kind of morbid but I hope we get to see Tom cry!!

Yeah, it’d be…interesting, to see him cry, but somehow I don’t think that’s going to happen, but I hope I’m wrong.
Thanx for the info :D
btw, link #6 doesn’t work, you missed and “o” in the .com ;)
