Things are going good. We´re shooting some great Steadicam moves towards the console now, showing all the production value we have here. Hanno and Peter have turned the “mainframe computer props”. They can only be shot from one side, which made them cheaper in construction, but they added the feature of being able to turn them around. The Steadicam starts from behind the “mainframes”, lit only by some fluorescents, and moves in on Didi as the screens show “alarm”. Alarm lamps and strobe effect are making the scenery more intense. Also, I have Didi play several alternatives for the different scenes we do, giving me more opportunities later in postproduction. This is Didi´s last day shooting BUDDY, so I better get everything in the can before he leaves.
