We could hardly pull the guys out when Halo 3 came out! One day, somehow they got wirelessly network with the camera team from second unit. Oh, the carnage!Azurgriphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06782192437325161681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18888640.post-34157668161760306732008-04-07T19:32:00.000-07:002008-04-07T19:32:00.000-07:00Thanks for the encouragement Michael. To tell you ...Thanks for the encouragement Michael. To tell you the truth, this one ain't that bad. The hours, except for today, are pretty reasonable and there are no nights on this one. It takes place in Alaska during the solstice when it's all daylight. Good to hear from you.<BR/> Azurgrip, I have two controllers, but no one has come up to play yet. I'm working my way through Gears of War and Halo 3 at the same time.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08466991423411721535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18888640.post-85699879208760818962008-04-07T19:29:00.000-07:002008-04-07T19:29:00.000-07:00Chris, To tell you the truth, I had nothing to do...Chris,<BR/> To tell you the truth, I had nothing to do with making them. My key grip, since he owns all his equipment had a bunch of 2x4s laying around one day and had someone chop them into wedges.They spent a whole day doing it. The old standard Hollywood wedges you still see sometimes are much wider and longer. Ours are just out of 2x4.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08466991423411721535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18888640.post-41035861141468938122008-04-06T18:13:00.000-07:002008-04-06T18:13:00.000-07:00Speaking of wedges and making them yourself, what ...Speaking of wedges and making them yourself, what is your preferred method for doing so?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18888640.post-16008143082276330442008-04-06T17:17:00.000-07:002008-04-06T17:17:00.000-07:00Thank you for the reply about the cedar shingles.....Thank you for the reply about the cedar shingles...I'm still wedging it as long as I can, but I did like the point about laying track on carpet.<BR/><BR/>Cheers <BR/><BR/>ReilAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18888640.post-66359368144715161522008-04-06T16:59:00.000-07:002008-04-06T16:59:00.000-07:00Sounds like you're having fun.

No way would I have the energy/commitment to post cogent thoughts after a 12 to 14 hour day on set -- but I'm glad you're doing it. Thanks.<BR/><BR/>The first week is always the hardest, and it sounds like you were tested early. Clearly you passed, though, and that's what counts. <BR/><BR/>Glad to hear you're having fun -- I wish you continued good luck on the show.Michael Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02569781786039595929noreply@blogger.com
