A Little Brain Teaser from the Film Shoot This Week

Categories: fun, random stuff

Okay, I made this brain teaser up myself just for you, so don’t laugh, okay?

Well, actually, you can laugh. Just laugh with me, not at me.

Whatever that means.

Anyhow.

During the entire three days The Director was shooting this week, we never rolled tape at the top of the hour. Can you guess why?

(I’ll drop a hint later today, if nobody can guess it by then.)

Musician. Composer. Recovering perfectionist. Minister-in-transition. Lover of puns. Hijacker of rock song references. Questioner of the status quo. I'm not really a rebel. Just a sincere Christ-follower with a thirst for significance that gets me into trouble. My quest has taken me over the fence of institutional Christianity. Here are some of my random thoughts along the way. Read along, join in the conversation. Just be nice.

    Aaroneous,
    Survey said: Nope.
    The Director was filming on HDV cassette. So yes, it’s digital, but yes, there is tape.
    Nice try, though… 🙂

    Because you didn’t want the church bells on the audio track.

    (I used to be a building manager at a somewhat historic church that often ended up being a film set , in case you’re wondering how I figured it out. I had to learn how to silence the bell’s programming during shoots.)

    Brent,
    A little confident there, aren’t you? 🙂

    You ought to be…because you’re right.

    There was an old Presbyterian church around the corner from the club. The full-blown Westminster thing, every hour on the hour.
