Finally getting the chance to catch up on jotting down some notes. And I’m happy to say we are wrapped on principal photography on Lucifer’s Crewcut! This has been a long and awesome show. Just two more bits of shooting for fx and we’re done acquiring. In the meantime, I’ve been working a cut together to get into color. I should have some teaser clips up soon … especially the dolly shots through their cribs. Those were pretty tight. It will take a little bit to get them just right and I’ll have to do the color first and then comp the 10-bit pro res clips to maintain a consistent look and quality. I’m pretty happy working in Color to preform look surgery on the Red material.
But for now, I leave you with some of the photos grabbed by Mark Brecke that really capture the days.
The glory days of Lucifer’s Crewcut!
Jason talks the shot over with the amassing throngs of extras. Sal provides moral support (and comic relief).

and a little karma photo at the end …
The bud spot is finished (with a little ADR help). Spot is uploaded and awaiting judgement. I wasn’t totally clear if they were good with me posting it three ways to Sunday, so I posed the question before shot gunning it out.
Overall it turned out well and much like I expected. I briefly pursued another angle but it didn’t totally come together … first thought best thought. It’s nice to have a concept simple enough to be executed in six hours with some play on set. And the new Red / FCP / Color workflow is behaving for the most part. A little issue with handles, but it has never been perfect. Small projects like this are easy to muscle through.
Special shout out to all the participants … those on camera (Bob Brindley, Rowan Brooks, Erin Coker and Krysti Lozinski) and the awesome crew: Matt Boucher – sound, Jennevine Lee – hair/MU, Allison Cohen – wardrobe and of course Stacey pulling together the production side AND the design. Now she gets the studio back to keep working on the next phase of Lucifer’s Crewcut.
