#$%& Jump Bug

Several members of the cast were struck with the "jump bug" and we had to send the ENTIRE cast to the CAS clinic for scientists to work on curing them. Since there is very little information about how the "jump bug" is caused or how it spreads, we decided it would be safest to demolish all the sets, take the newly cured cast to new sets and start again. Of course this means yet another delay, but my assistant is trying to show me the good side of things.

The final episodes are being shipped to the network today, we're also selling adspace to local businesses so viewers can expect to see commercials during the episodes. The first two episodes of next season are filmed and need to be edited, which is good. That buys us some time with the rebuilding of the sets and curing the cast.

We were working on the Missy-Randy-Carli residence this past simday and decided to try and add some custom snapshots of the "family" about the house. So now we're sending the actors to the photography studio to take some wedding photos and other family shots. Once we finish thier set, we're moving on to the Sierra-Nailah residence. Thankfully their storyline is going to be altered a bit to match with the new set. One good thing about the jump bug is now we can build the sets to be larger and better lit, the lighting in some of the first shots are still a bit too dark for my taste, so we're adding even more lights. I don't think the cast is too fond of that :

If another crisis comes up I think I will scream!!!!
