A bit of a migraine

Went out last night and drowned our sorrows – our director was a little worried that we’d end up with hangovers – we haven’t got one, but he’s suffering from a ‘migraine’ this morning 😉

Super soldiers

Here’s a quick pic of what me and Steve Davis (not the snooker player) were wearing today photo

And a sneaky photo of the Brilliant Jess Snyder who designed them:

There’s always one …

Bit of a nightmare day of filming today lots went wrong and we didn’t get a vital scene before we lost the light. Bit of a morale issue now but a nice meal and lots of drink and we’ll be back at it tomorrow

In car zombie action

Tough day hell of a lot to do in a very small amount of time. The star, Chloe, was brilliant again. And amazing makeup too.

The intro is coming together really well – it’s going to be a real treat for the fans .

Finished the day having dinner and drinks with most of the crew and sone of the behind the scenes people – great time.

First day

First day of shooting, sorry for the late post – I managed to hose my Internet allowance just getting my email and only just got wifi.

We spent today fixing some shots of the two main intro characters. One of them is me but the main one is Chloe who was awesome during filming – you are all going to love her

Bulgaria

Bulgaria is a seriously beautiful country. Rolling vistas, stunning architecture and glistening lakes. The people seem nice so far too.

Currently sitting in my room eating a slightly crushed Twinkie and drinking cherry coke.

The eagles have landed

We are in Bulgaria – currently driving the hour long journey to our accommodation getting through the airport and getting our belongings was surprisingly smooth

On way 2

Sitting in The Red Lion in the departure bit, just had an English Breakfast and a coffee. Forgot to mention that just before we left the house the hexacopter was powered up for the first time, so that was awesome

On way

On the way to the airport – very large car full of lots and lots of bags

Waiting ….

We should be leaving here for the airport at about 2am, no point sleeping so it’s a bit of thumb twiddling going on.  Well, i’m twiddling my thumbs – AD is running around doing exciting stuff with cameras and batteries.  Sitting right in front of me is the hexacopter that I lovingly constructed last time I was here.  Unfortunately it won’t be making the trip with us to Bulgaria, but it will still be taking an important part in the film.

I’ve also had to make my self tea, which seems a bit a wrong – i’m the damned guest here 😉 , although to be fair keeping up with my tea requests would require someone available to me pretty much every 10 minutes.

Currently it’s me and AD waiting on KT to bring back Chloe – then at some stage Steve will turn up which is the party that will be leaving here for the airport, where we will meet the last 3 people.

We’ve also been doing some creative bag packing as we try to keep below the weight limit – Easyjet tend to be a little strict on keeping them at or below 20kg.

There, a relatively sensible and sober post about what’s going on.  If only i’d have remembered my camera and my iPhone wasn’t charging I could have put some photos on too, damn.
