Desert Life…

Random weather with crazy off season monsoon-like rain showers created flash flooding in the desert around and in Downtown Las Vegas last Thursday. The unheard of weather conditions for the season changed our shooting schedule around a bit. And because one of our actors had to fly back to Europe this morning we had to use Saturday as a full production day even though we usually have the weekends off.

This week I have been everywhere emotionally possible. I kid you not. But it feels beyond amazing and I am extremely happy to work with the very talented and creative director Shaky Gonzalez and his team. That being said, I am also tired since the movie is physically challenging and this week our ‘weekend’ began Saturday evening after a very long day of shooting in the desert in a skimpy costume doing crazy stuff reminiscence of the legend Bonnie and Clyde.

Here are a few stills from the past weeks’ events. Yesterday while shooting in the barren desert, I was mostly getting into fights, shooting real guns and driving like a maniac. (What’s not to love…??) 🙂
