Lights and Sounds...

[J.Rai]

OMFGosh! I forgot to talk about the new gear! This will excite half-dozens of you...

OK, after our trials-by-fire and learning-by-doing lessons in lighting and set production, we invested in a new lighting rig. We now have a few sets of halogen stands that we're using for elevated lighting... that's right kids, just like you see off to the side in your favorite amateur porn. Learn from the pro's!

As well, I went off and expanded the arsenal of sound gear by getting a wireless mic system. This will hopefully help to isolate the dialogue in our oft-noisy surroundings and up our production value a li'l more. We're movin' on up... (moooovin' on up!). We'll upload a set production photo (http://www.truenuff.com/gallery/v/tv/homesweethome/newlights.html) or two to the Gallery (http://www.truenuff.com/gallery/main.php) for now and you can see in more detail as the rest of the production photos go up along with the sketch on Sunday (we can't show them all, there are spoilers!)

See you Sunday!

it may seem strange, but we're really pumped for the new lights.

we just have to learn how to use them properly :D

woo! i alwayz kinda liked setting up lights and shit...maybe i should go to hollywood and be a grip...

[koajack]

dont go to LA it sucks

and i mean REALLY sucks

but im sure you could get a job as a grip where you live now if you look

[Threeboy]

i don't mind LA, but I only visit.

[SiegeTheGrave]

please, there is absolutely nothing like that where i live...there's wal-mart and lowe's....and then country. lol i'd have to drive to the city, which is too fuckin far to drive and i can't afford to move yet. oh how i miss the city...

[koajack]

if you cant afford the city where you live then you definately cannot afford LA.

my friend is attempting to make it as an actor and he is looking at a 375 square foot apartment or should i say studio in the valley that will cost him 900 something a month.

i live in san diego, in the poor part of town and i still pay $725 for a one bedroom apartment.

so unless you know you will be getting a great paying job, or if you have like 20 roommates you might not want to move to southern california.

lol why do you think so many californians are moving to arizona and texas?

[SiegeTheGrave]

lol no shit...i definitely have no plans to move to cali. i could afford to live here, hell i could afford to live in Dallas comfortably now and that's slightly more expensive...but still it was only like $450 a month for a 1 bedroom...FUCK paying $725 for that...me and a couple friends payed that much for a 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment in arlington lol.

[Threeboy]

cranston & I pay $1200CAD a month for a 3 bedroom / 2 bath - that's approx $1060 USD.

[SiegeTheGrave]

not bad

[Threeboy]

for this town, not at all.
