Forget what you're used to seeing...
Friday, October 3rd
This was the beginning of the church invasion… We set up in Tulsa Bible Church’s sanctuary to find our runaway Roger, played by Aaron Kruse.
Again we employed the very noir-styled lighting techniques (making sure lights were 90 degrees away from camera, etc), and for the first time we were reshooting over one of our equipment tests as we had a callback for 4 potential Rogers and ran the scene (and recorded it) many times, so setting up for the actual movie performance ran fairly quickly.
After we wrapped for the night, we stored the equipment at the church and set up to shoot with Brian Shoop for what was going to be one of the longest shoot days of our early schedule.
Fun note: Aaron and his brother Justin both tried out for the role of Roger. While Aaron took the role, Justin plays the piano piece that Roger is playing in the movie.
