Weekly, sickly, deadly
One of the problems with developing a weekly series, is producing something every week. Not out of laziness, but due to unforseen problems, like illness, equipment failure or resource availability. We had quite a few of these problems with our Frank and Dale machinima, because we would write and produce a full episode, the week before it was to be released. We won’t be doing that again when season 2 kicks in later in the year.
Luckily for Bonny & Clyde, we’re quite a way ahead episode wise. Like really a long way ahead, so it won’t really affect our schedule. But it’s still annoying when you put a lot of work into costuming, set construction and special effects preparation, only to have one of the improvisors, and our Director, both fall sick on shooting day. We wish them well, and at least everyone else got to have a day off, which was nice.
Also luckily, we just happened to be shooting at our house today, so we can at least leave everything as it is until we can reschedule.
The only question is, now what do we do with 10 litres of corn syrup?
