Locations, Locations, Locations!

Hello All,

Here is the update on the locations.

House- Check- Haley Winn has offered up her home in highland park for us to invade for a couple of days during production. Its the one to right that you can't see because of the bushes haha.

Field- Check- We have chosen Glencoe Park in Dallas TX to shoot the field day scene.

Tree- Check- Also at the Glencoe Park are some awesome trees to shoot the shoes in.

School- Check- We our using Peak Academy but we have not been able to take pictures or videos yet.

Bus- almost a Check- Conor Wallace, a bus driver at Denton ISD has agreed to drive the bus for us. However, Denton ISD will not be joining us. I have spoken with another student Josh Smith, who is helping me secure a bus in a smaller school district. They received the script but I am waiting to hear what the verdict is. We also have craigslist contacts if that falls through for whatever reason.

Ok That's All For Now!

Meeting #6

Hello All! We got a lot done in this meeting! We voted on all of our wonderful logos, thanks to our design team! Lauren Lebron's crane logo was the final pick. We spent a lot of time discussing our fundraiser plans and decided to create a committee to just focus on that. This will consist of Bryce Richardson, Tara Tawater, Lauren Lebron and Daniel Flach. More to come on that side of the project. Next meeting will be Thursday at 11am in the avid lab.
That's all for now!
