Shot idea.

Thinking about the final fight scene for part 1: I have some particular shots in my head that'd I'd like to get during the fight. The initial action is that Jaime picks up Michael and throws him against the wall. Jaime kind of assumes that will be it and lets his guard down. All this will happen without seeing Jaime's upper body. Michael slowly gets up. Jaimes moves toward Michael, grabs him and drags him to the other side of the room. Holding him halfway up punches him and lets him slump to the ground. All of this action will be very slow. Camera movements and cuts will be slow and infrequent. Now this i see in my head very particularly the camera is very low to the ground. Michael is slumped against the wall framing the leftside and Jaime's feet frame the right. Michael slowly rises again. The camera rises with Michael then beyond up to reveal for the first time in the movie Jaime's upper body and very angry face. From there we will move into some fater moving action.

Delay

Well unfortunately it looks like there will be a significant delay in the making of Tussle Part 1. I still havent had an MRI yet but I have experience in these things so I'm pretty sure I'll need a scope to get full range of motion back into my right knee. I probably could still do a fight scene but not a the scene I really want to do. The good news is right now I'm still able to workout upper-body and cardio so recovery time will be minimized. Once I get official word I'll update.

Also the script shall be ready to hand out soon.

Time Management

Evolution. I am still trying to adjust to the new job. Oh yeah, I got a new job. The job itself is fine, but I'm not used to the schedule yet, and am trying to develop a new routine. So, I've been exhausted and haven't been too wise in managing my time, but I think about Tussle everyday. I am still excited and very eager to commense rolling film(or dv). I haven't devoted much time to the Tussle soundtrack in the past couple weeks, but I am hungry to dig into it again. I just hope the ending product is something Adan might like to use to accompany his vision. Anyhow, I hope to make some progress this week(crossing my fingers).
