So - locations:
Thoughts on going up to San Fran Botanical Roof Garden? Found another one in Oakland. Will keep searching - check the blog.

TOmorrow night - I'm not outta the shop till 11. I will meet you guys then? Sorry for the inconvenience.

Saturday - hopefully will be back late afternoon - stupid stump hunting- I really have no idea how long this will take.

Materials: I have one yoga mat, could definitely get cookery, probably an apron, and an assortment of gardening tools from home.

Hey team,


It looks like our schedule will work out like this:


Friday 10 pm - storyboard our new video
Saturday (throughout) + Sunday morning - film the new video
Sunday evening + Monday morning - editing


It'd be great if we could all start scouting locations + looking for props before meeting tomorrow night . It's still vague at the moment because we haven't come up with our new storyboard yet, but here are a few things we need to look for / keep in mind:


1. BACKGROUND for exec interviews -- For example, should we use a clean (white?) background indoors, as seen in the Apple video? I think it would help our audio quality and provide a sharper contrast with outdoor shots of our service "in use." Thoughts? Better yet, post your thoughts as comments on the blog post .


2. LOCATIONS - Where can we film to give the illusion we're on a commercial rooftop? Now that I think about it, the main problem is elevation. It was easy to tell we were on ground level in all of our shots. Is FloMo still our best shot? Let's try our best to do some scouting before our meeting tomorrow night!


3. PROPS - Yoga mats, chef outfit, cookware, garden tools, etc. Do any of you have these?


-Nick
