Earthquake in the Edit Room!
05:44 PM / Friday, August 8, 2008
Hey Twilighters,
We've been spending a lot of time in edit room during
post production....some may say too much time! Check out this video below
that my assistant Patrick and I thought up after the earthquake hit LA
last week.

The Weather
01:15 PM / Thursday, June 26, 2008
Hey Twilighters,
As I continue to edit the film (it's getting really, really
good now) I'm watching the scenes and remembering some of the crazy weather
conditions we had in Oregon... The California actors weren't used to
the Oregon winter -- they had to wear wetsuits and double SmartSocks to keep toasty. (How many places on your body can you put those
chili pepper Heat Packs?)
In one shooting day you could have rain, hail,
snow, and SUNSHINE -- not good for vampires!
Talk about a filmmakers
challenge, trying to get all the shots in the same scene to
match.
Here's a video with some of the cast and crew explaining how tricky it was.

That's a Wrap
05:46 PM / Friday, May 2, 2008
Dear Twilighters:
It’s our
last night of shooting on Twilight. Principal photography is ending….We
survived snow, hail, sleet, torrential downpours, and blazing sun (when we
didn’t want it) – sometimes all in one day. SEVERE WEATHER is an
understatement. Before I started the film, I walked into an outdoor outfitter
store and asked “What can I wear so that I can stand out in the freezing rain
for 14 hours a day and not get wet?” I bought a pile of Gortex boots, rain
pants, jacket, hat, neckwarmer, long underwear, and Smart Wool socks in every
thickness. ALL GUARANTEED.
But, at the end of our shoot day at the
beach, with Jacob and Bella, the rain soaked through all my Gortex, through
three layers of jackets and socks. I rang out my waterproof gloves and could
have watered my rose bushes for an entire summer. The crew had to hold down the
lunch tent to keep it from blowing away. Grown men were crying, but the actors
and crew gave it their best.
This movie had some rough days, but
yesterday out in Valencia, in the middle of a dusty parking lot, I looked at the
fence and saw a group of fans – some of you guys had made the trek from
Arizona! I was bone tired, but that revved me up to see how much you guys
care. I got turbo-charged and jumped on the process trailer and finished the
scene. Thanks for your support!
Next, I’m heading into the editing room to
start putting everything together – with music, sound effects, visual effects,
etc. Getting ready for December 12th….
Love to you all,
Catherine
