There is a physical and spiritual exhaustion that comes at the end of a day of filming that is unlike anything else I’ve ever experienced. You rise early, you shower and shave, you rehearse, you shoot, you repeat takes, for every possible reason, you contend with egos and the elements and at the end of the day you hug everyone, have a beer and go to bed.

Tomorrow Keith and I start editing and figuring out our team for next weekend. Friday we post OLD LOVE. Saturday morning we  shoot the next one, Saturday night we hug everyone, have a beer and go to bed. Sunday we edit and plan.

Round and round we go on the mad carousel that is 12in12.
