Alright here’s a quick recap of day 19 Wow day 19 already geez. So the big things I did today in day 19 was start the filming process we actually got some really cool outside scene on the cut to it right here or I have my VA do it actually because he’s amazing. So here’s some of the different outside scenes we had some jogging scenes and punching scenes some yoga scenes outside we went up to pang a canyon which was amazing we want to hang a canyon to do the filming ended up being a beautiful day. So that was great been my DP took care of all this our two actors AK and Haley were there I actually I have a bunch of footage of me talking about it let me just give some lessons learned right now and then we’ll cut through to the footage of Zack Haley doing their thing some behind the scenes work of my first day this is my first ever hiring somebody to do a project for me.
That was really cool you know but the total cost I don’t know if I’m supposed to share it but it was under five thousand dollars the cost of the video and that includes renting the equipment that includes a life alone or five hundred dollars the location for tomorrow day two was eight hundred dollars. So it’s just I and the bigger thing for me is been the DP took care of all the hassle I really thought even when I hired someone to do the filming I was still going to have to find the actors and actresses find all the help and go get all the gear now I took care of all of it money well-spent it reminded me that it’s worth it to outsource you know I don’t I always try to want to do everything myself to save money but it’s such a I have no idea how I was going to produce this Kickstarter video by hiring someone once again it was Muslim cheap but it was way better quality than I ever could have done it was just such a load off my shoulders. So we’ll see how the whole Kickstarter turns out but here’s just a couple quick lessons learned outsourced generally speaking things work out I know it always it’s stressful starting a new business trust me I know but things end up working out and just really you know trust your gut and go with that was one of the big things
I hired Ben I might have talked about this before if not you know maybe I’ll do a separate video just about this but I hired Ben and really strongly on my gut like and we’ll see how it all turns out in the end but I’m not a huge usually I’m a very analytical person but lately and I think with hiring decisions it’s really you need to trust your gut and I received emails I put in a Craigslist ad for a DP she’d emails his stood out to me by far than Isles I called them up and just his voice and just his attitude towards it he was excited and but just like just the right amount and I really knew that this was the guy I wanted to work with. So day one filming went awesome day two is gonna be a really big deal we’ve got the gym for 2 hours and we’re going to be filming there I’m going to be showing behind the scenes of that let’s get into some of the behind the scenes of day one also I had to go buy a suit for the day toon filming. So how you’ll see some little snaps of that is well. So let’s get to it all right.
This is still day I’m following this Ben right here he’s my DP director of photography and the two actors the actress and actor are also in the car up in front of us. So we’re filming the outside scene today I’m really excited this is my first time doing like a legit filming situation the whole cost of the Kickstarter video I don’t know if I should release the exact number but it’s under five thousand dollars really lucky to found then he’s taking care of everything he did the initial script but I’ve done some rewrites I’ll share the actual script later in this video it leaks what I think the script would innovate but there’s been a lot of back and forth and I’m like I want to change this and it’s funny because I keep noticing myself being like oh I don’t really care and then as soon is like for instance with the clothing that the actor and actress were wearing like I don’t really care but should they start trying on things I’m like no that looks better no that looks better I don’t want them wearing that. So it’s been the whole process has been pretty your sing self will keep following them we’re going to be driving up to I think it’s like Topanga Canyon area for the outside shots and later in this video I’m going to get some outside shots and some film some behind the scenes action [Music] you [Music] all right day . So today we have a lot of things that I’m doing one of the big things I’ve done this morning. So far is compiling a list of podcasters and people like that to reach out to to send out the free samples but also to try to get on their podcast. So that’s one of the things I’m doing right now we’re driving to go get a soup.
My Kickstarter video is gonna be really cool it’s going to start with me in a dark blue gym in a suit I’m not gonna reveal all the details just yet but I need to buy a suit I don’t have like a really good fitting suit. So I’m going to do that later today we’re going to be doing some filming out at Runyon Canyon I think er Topanga Canyon somewhere over in that area and get some outside shots we’re gonna have some of the actors I’ll definitely film some for that. So stay tuned for this video day should be a lot of fun. So let’s go and you’ll see me soon trying on some suits.
