Picture Wrap

As shooting is wrapping up, some of the main characters are finishing all of their scenes. When you are shooting a movie and your character is not in anymore scenes, the director makes an announcement that you are "picture wrapped" and everyone on set cheers for you. I have four more scenes before my picture wrap but my friend/costar Maruice Mejia got picture wrapped yesterday and he was quite sad. At dinner last night he said that he felt like he should cross his arms, close his eyes and go into his coffin closet. He said it was as if the little light above his head was extinguished.

Last night our awesome assistant director, Ryan Copple, saved the day. We needed a body that hadn't been used in the movie yet for a background shot and he totally stepped up. There is a shot of my "fiance" and myself watching a "play" and since we are lucky enough to have Ryan, it won't look like we are in the theater by ourselves. It has now been dubbed the "Copple Cameo"

Picture wrapping was kinda sad. I hope that you don't go through the same withdrawal symptoms that I have gone through....fatigue, blood loss, rashes, dizziness, etc. Hope to see ya in L.A. so you can teach me the ways of the mohicans.
