Exciting day yesterday! Went up to meet with Scott about the doc he is interested in working with us on. It's kind of interesting being in these first stages of development. Our goal was to listen to what he was looking for and present to him what we needed in order to do just that. Ended up that what he wanted would require a ton of work from us, so we basically told him we need equipment and we need compensation for our time so money is going to have to come from somewhere. It was kind of my first time really asking for anyone to fund me like that. Well, on that level anyway. I get the sense that he doesn't really know what it takes to put a film like this together. And neither do we for that matter. But I can tell you this, it ain't cheap as free.
All in all I feel good about our first production meeting on this and cant wait to get crackin on a budget and also figure out the direction we want to go with the film cause there are many we can choose from. Also looking forward to going back up to Santa Barbara and spending some time there.
After we got back, I went straight over to a sleepover the preteen boys were having. We had a great time throwing them around and playing games and just getting some bonding time in. Very grateful that I am in this ministry. Best line from last night: "He cheesed me!" - Chandler after Cray put Handi-snack cheese on his face for falling asleep first.
