How many people on a set?

It is a constant surprise for me when I see a shot of a scene from a different angle, and there are TONS of people standing around. Often scenes which can seem quite intimate, personal, aren't really. Actors must have to work hard to not be distracted by the dozens of people it takes to shoot a scene.

Today I'll be recording voice overs for some promo video's for the Stargate site. I'm sort of excited and nervous at the same time. I have a very distinct accent, which has become a sort of mishmash between Australian and American. The worst part is I can now hear my own accent if I concentrate on what I'm saying, then it puts me off and I stumble around some words. Apparently after my read through's I am told I need to sound "more excited". The saddest part of that is that I was TRYING to sound excited! HAHA.. Oh well, I'll let you know how it goes.

Oh.. an image to show all the other people on the set, and I'm sorry I promise I'm still looking for that other image I promised!

Can't seem to locate...

I just can't seem to locate a photo from "Spoils of War" that everyone hasn't already seen. I'll keep looking, as I know more images are being picked and approved all the time. In the meantime, how about something completely different?



Work on the new Stargate site is coming along well. Many of the pictures of my cats & lorem ipsum are being replaced be real actual honest to goodness content! It's exciting to watch it all take shape.
