Pre-production for season two has begun. I've been having frequent meetings with the writers to determine the direction of some characters for the second season. We have finalized Erika's storyline and we're working to finalize Roxy's storyline. Nailah's storyline gave us some trouble, we had originally planned for a significant change in her life to occur during the second season, but we feel that this change is much too soon. As a result, her storyline for the second season was a blank slate, but now we seem to have settled on an idea for her and it will probably affect the future of her character greatly. Other characters' storylines are being refined and some are completely deleted. Hopefully we'll have the storylines finalized by October so we can begin filming for the second season. Also, once we get our mid-season reviews in October/November I can send out contract renewals with the possibility of bonuses-depends on how popular the show is.
The network has requested ten episodes a season and two seasons a year, so that means we need to get started with the second season in order to produce those episodes to the network by January, well at least a significant number of the episodes.
Finally got the Pennelson Productions website complete to my desire, for now. We're working on the Pahala Shore website, adding additional cast pages, creating templates for the behind the scenes pages-not to mention trying to put out publicity about the show's premire this Friday-I hope the cast takes plenty of photos, they're in for a wonderful night! Hopefully the show will be a success, but more importantly it will deal with real issues and real choices, not cliches. Well, I have another meeting with the editors tonight-we're trying to wrap up editing for episodes 3 and 4 in order to ship them out at the end of the month.
