Behind the Scenes and Bloopers of "The First Day"

David put this up on YouTube for us all to enjoy. If you want to see the trailer and read about filming in our apartment, please click on the "David's Movies" link under "labels" on right.

Movie Premiere "The First Day"

Last Saturday, we started the day walking around the east side of Portland in the Hawthorne area. We did some vintage shopping and admired all the crazy cars that come out on nice days. :)

Later, we went to David Garcia's movie premiere of "The First Day". It was Tom's acting debut, and he did pretty well for the 15 seconds he was in the movie. Tom played a bodyguard guy, who dies pretty quickly in the beginning. It was a fun night...I can't wait for the next installment.

Moving Making Saturday

Shortly after moving to Oregon, I learned that Tom's co-worker and great friend, David G. is very passionate about movies. Last year, he started making his own short films, and usually after a few months of editing, everyone gets together for the big movie premiere. Last Saturday, David asked to shoot a few of his scenes from his newest movie in our apartment. What we saw was fabulous, and we can't wait for the finished product!! Later that night Mark came over, we got food from Five Guys Burger and Fries, and settled in to watch the Blazers. Overall the Blazers did crappy, but the food was FABULOUS...hands down, the best fast food burger and fries I've ever had. I'm gettin hungry just thinking about it! :) Below are pics from our moving making Saturday.

Sketches of the movie scenes

David directing Shane aka "Joe Garcia"

Shane aka "Joe Garcia". He's suppose to be the stereotypical hillbilly husband.

This is take two of three. David will probably use the 3rd take, which is a tad funnier than this....but this one is still pretty good. Basically, Maria walks in after being fired from her job and finds her hubby being a lazy drunk. The quality isn't the best b/c it's from my lil' pink sony camera. :)
