This was an interesting weekend for sure it started out like any other weekend on set but then after lunch break I had to go from Jamie Santamore the founder of Wicked Carnival Productions and the writer / director of the Sins of Man trilogy and transform myself back into the cold, calculating Victor Barclay and get my prison orange on complete with shackles.
So I get dressed in my prison orange and get the shackles on etc. and we are looking at the scene and how it will play out in the room we are in and I'm thinking about how I want to play Victor in this scene and how I have changed while being locked up for three years and I thought I could play t two ways the first was being I could play it off like I did at the end of Rise of Mortis like I was a smart ass and didn't care about being caught or the other way where I could be cold and calculated with my responses to the questions. then as I'm sitting there wait for Chris to call action I decided that I would try to mix the two and be cocky and cold, I think I pulled it off well . That was a day scene. I want to say Thank you to Adam Ewing and Caitlynn McCauley for working in the scene with me they both helped me get through it .
That was the first interview scene after that I got back into director mode and filmed more scenes. we worked straight through dinner time because we wanted to get as much done as possible . We had a sick cast member but she was a trooper and came to set anyway, we filmed all her scenes back to back so she could go home as quickly as possible .
During the afternoon , evening scenes we actually came up with something on the fly that will give the movie something alittle different that we think will catch the audience by surprise . So then to end the night of shooting I had to get into my prison Orange again for the night interview scene .

I get all dressed and shackled up and we are getting ready to walk down the hallway to the interview room and Caitlynn (Playing Detective Roberts) has me by the arm and is basically forcing me down the hallway and we did a cut as I walked into the room and once Chris yelled action she shoved me down into the chair rather roughly which by the way was awesome ! We shot the interview scene which for many reasons is important to the film So Adam delivers his line "Get him outta here" and Caitlynn yanks me out of the chair which was painful but effective LOL.
All in all even with the Police Brutality that Detective Roberts showed in her man handling of me I still thought the scenes worked and delivered the effect I want them to .
We are about a quarter of the way through or shooting schedule with ALOT more to go and I think I will see what I can add to the movie n terms of some little things that will add some mystery to the movie ..... Stay tuned fans !
STAY HUMBLE, STAY HUNGRY MY FRIENDS :)
