Bad Decisions in Pre-Production!!

Been working on this for most of the year, and now were ready to get this ball rolling! 

It’s really incredible finally getting this project off of the ground! There is soooo much left to do, but that’s what adrenaline is for! To keep you focused on the task at hand such as set design, lighting, blocking, table reads, costume, location scouting and casting. Did I forget to mention something? I’m sure I did!
