Thanks, Ray. Our producer, Jimmy, came up with that name.
Nice work. How did you guys manage to get a bar and that great home location in 48hrs?
Curious, as I usually have to secure locations for my shoots. I'm always looking for good ideas on how to go about doing that.
Our actor, Rusty, has a networking party once a month at that bar, so he knows the owner. They are really flexible, as long as we shoot in the early day hours, when hardly any customers are there.
The house belongs to our team producer, Jimmy. It's up on Sunrise mountain and that view of the Las Vegas downtown is right out of his window.
I've participated in 48 Hour a few times. I don't really worry about locations, until I get the required genre and elements on Friday. I don't really have connections to public locations, but sometimes someone on the team has access to a bar, school, restaurant. It's just a matter of being ready to roll with what you have available, at the time. At the very least, I know that I've got access to my house, shooting in a vehicle, or out in the desert.
