Untitled Skyes Project: Shoot Day 1 (Tyler)

[harveylanesykes]

Harvey had been so busy the day before that he didn't even get time to sleep but that didn't make him any less wired and in tune to everything going on around him then he would be with sleep in him. As soon as he got a script together because he had all the actors together the only thing he needed to do was build the sets and he did that very quickly. Sets were still being built all over the studios, he was taking up a large number of them. One of the scenes though, also one of the easiest to shoot on top of that in terms of style, took place at a dance club though on the dance floor instead of in any studio. He managed to book the Grove during the day during the week which gave him the perfect type of mood. They had three days to shoot there without interference since it was not their busy days but he suspected they would be done shooting this one scene that day.

Getting Tyler a copy of the script, he gave him a call time to appear on set, by the time Tyler would get there the crew would already have everything including lighting, which was what always took the longest, setup. He had spent the entire night with his cinematographer and lighting crew setting up the entire event. By the time it came for Tyler to appear on set Harvey had a red bull in hand and was ready to shoot. "ALRIGHT! Let's bring Tyler out so I can choreograph the scene with him." Around the place were dozens and dozens of professional females dancers looking for their five seconds of fame. Everybody there and the setup looked like it was from the 60ies, for a good reason, the thing took place in the 60ies. He had a good hippie sort of drag planned for Tyler to wear and a wig for very long hair.

Tyler had just woken up, and he already had work on his mind. He got up, got dressed, and ran down the stairs. He gave his little sisters kisses on the heads and greeted his parents. "Honey you have a filming today?" His mother asked him. "Yeah Mom, Is my car out of the shop yet?" he replied. "No honey, Take the Hummer" "Alrighty" he replied. As he left the house he grabbed his mother's car keys. He pulled himself into the Hummer H3 and started the engine. On his way to the grove he got a Starbucks coffee and sipped it. When he entered the parking lot he sat in his car for a few minutes drinking his coffee before exiting his car and entering the grove.

He entered the set and was immediately grabbed by a make up artist, After a hour of having make up applied he was free to go. Tyler ran towards his director, getting there one minute before his scheduled call time. "Right here boss" He said with a smile. Pulling up his sagged jeans.

When Tyler was on set Harvey was walking around in a steady motion two two people guided him. He was looking through what looked like a small telescope. It was mostly the lens he was using and trying to see what his shot would look like so they were prepared for Tyler with everything in the background. When he heard Tyler's voice though he stopped looking through it and walked up to Tyler in his hippie costume. "Ha! I love it. Comfortable? I hope not, otherwise the costume designers didn't do the 60ies well enough."

Putting his arm around Tyler he started to walk him towards a part of the set where the scene started. "This is how it's going to go down. You remember those dance steps we worked on for this song. Basically you keep walking forward in the club and after you sing every verse of the song you grab a girl and do a swing dance move with her. Toss her around, sooth her with your voice. Your a womanizer and that's the point in this song. It has to pop out to the audience through your dancing with them that you move from one girl in the next. The shot will be a very long shot, at least a few minutes just following you as you walk and dance forward. It will end just before the last verse. Now try to remember Robert Plant in this song, his motions were always over the top swinging from one side to the next. Neck, back, legs, hair. You got any questions or you ready for the first take?"

All were getting into the position then including the dancers waiting for their turn as he steps forward.
