After
wrapping week 2, I got to head back to New York for one whole day before
heading down to Baltimore, MD for week 3.
While
home, I got to spend some time with my dog, Belle. This is a pic Tony
took of her and I. She's actually sleeping here. She tries to crawl
into blankets and sleep, but sometimes she hits a wall and can't go
any farther.When that happens, she just stops and falls asleep, but
never seems to notice that her butt is sticking out of the blanket for
all the world to take pics of.
For
our third week on Trenches, we would be shooting for 4 days in a bunker
in Fort Howard, and then 1 day in a studio. Our hotel was right across
the street from a giant Bible College, and we all really, REALLY wanted
to get Scott into the Alien costume to stand outside the door and pretend
to be the Devil coming for the student's immortal souls. But we feared
that the Bible girls might be packing heat, so instead we had to find
other things to amuse ourselves with.
Here's
one amusing thing we found. It's the hotel snack machine. We could forgive
the metal gate protecting it, but look closely at what's being sold.
In addition to the chips, candies and gum...
You
can get condoms, and cigars! Now that's a party hotel if I've ever seen
one!
That
night we all headed out to a Dominican restaurant that Orlando knew
about. Here's Cat with Orlando's (very confused looking) son.
Cast
and crew hanging out having dinner together. I'm pretty sure this is
one of the signs of the Apocalypse.
Pete
(the Canadian Alien guy) showing how he can ALMOST get his fist in his
mouth.
Our
first day on the new set had us living outside in a park! The bunker
was right nearby, but we had a picnic area to use as our base camp.
Here's Graham setting up the Make-Up area.
Scott
(the other Scott, we had about 20 Scotts on set for some reason) looking
very confused for some reason.
Pete,
Steve (the Stunt Man) and Scott looking very bored.
Aaron
gets kidnapped by Erica.
Graham's
weekend "Party" bag. Latex, Food Coloring, and Personal Lubricants,
oh my.
Apparently,
the latex and lube go a long way with the ladies, here's Graham fighting
off Jenni, Sam and Erica!
Here's
where Hong ruined Scott's (another Scott) kneepad while playing with
the paints.
Our
first day on set week three also introduced us to a new actor that we
hadn't met yet. It's Daz! He plays Verro, the Kuzaa soldier. Here's
a scar test that Vicki and Graham were testing out on him.
Scar
test #2.
Sam
all covered in blood, don't ask why.
Graham
looking all happy that he finally gets to play with blood.
Blood
on the walls. Ewww.
Scott
playing with his ball.. gag.
Jenni
making a new Kuzaa belt while Speedy (the Pyro guy) watches.
Shane
taking Jack's lunch order. That's right, we made the Director bring
us lunch. It's normal.
Casey
(the Stunt Woman)giving me the eye. And the thumb's up.
Daz,
looking like he's about to jump off the bench and kill me. He was a
very scary guy, especially when he kept pinching the back of my arm.
:(
Who
knew that Vader was a Confederate.
Jenni
and Sam making belts.
Spat!
Yeah! Baby! Wooo!
Erica
in her combat ready killer costume! We did have one huge problem on
set, and that was the problem of too much free time for some people.
Certain teams were swamped all day long (wardrobe and props), and other
teams had free time (aliens and FX make-up). So to keep their sanity,
those groups would find ways to amuse themselves in the down time. And
one way was to dress the women up, put make-up on them, and then make
them pose for photo shoots.
Graham
with... something in his hand. I'm not sure I want to know what.
