New Project

I decided that instead of continuing to wish that artists had a platform to do interviews and promote thier projects that I would simply create such a project. Right now I'm focused on Pahala Shore, but if we get ahead of schedule I will look at creating this new project. It would be a talk-show, aired once a month. The host would have interviews with celebrities to discuss hot issues and occasionally there would be a musical guest to perform. I have a few sims in mind for the host, but I will hold my tongue and wait. If this show were combined with the Pahala Shore episodes, then that would be two shows a month to be aired from the production company-not to mention the occasional movies. Speaking of movies-we're looking for a new place to host the movies and of course I've been looking through scripts for the latest hottest sure to be blockbuster movie. I think the production company made a good choice in investing in "The Gift" trilogy and of course "Superstar" which has been nominated for several awards. I need to update my passport, as well as Tatiana's passport-so that we can be ready to fly at a moment's notice.

The writers and I had a meeting this afternoon where we worked out the storyline lines for the characters-a few of the larger storylines were left undone until we could see how many episodes we would need. Right now we're slated for one episode a month, this could increase depending on the productivity of the cast and crew and how the storyboards are slated to go. We then placed the storylines in our episode boards to lay out the timing of the stories and the episode content. A fairly complex process, but it saves so much time later on. From our work we decided to aire ten episodes this season instead of nine, now we're rearranging stories so that everything will flow, right now the current storylines go into the second season-this isn't that bad after all.

We need to hire two more male actors for Erika's storyline (yes, now she has a storyline and is no longer a supporting role) and filming is set to begin this week. We're going to start with the Lani-Russel-Meka storyline since all the cast for that storyline are present and not ill. Once Ruth and David are better we'll start on thier scenes. Jasmine flew in today-so she's going to makeup and wardrobe tonight.

Here's a photo of the cast goofing off-Tatiana is singing and Josie and Alexis are doing the back up, while Timothy sits in the background. It is amazing how the cast has begun to seperate into little cliques-at first everyone was doing everything together-dinners, lunches, etc, but now I can see that some cast members are closer to others-but of course that is mostly because they have worked on other projects together.
