Requiem Of A Shoot Day
Requiem Of A Shoot Day
The setup for the music video shoot started at three. The time was spent painting wooden boxes to use for the photography shoot setting. I myself as well as painting the boxes had to head into the local town to pick up food for the cast and crew on the day of the shoot. The day started off

Preparing The Website
