Days 18 & 19 - July 10th & 11th '09

First pictures from Day 18...thanks to Meg! I apologize for the low quality - we should have pics coming from a higher rez camera soon. But I figured you all would rather see something, no matter what the quality.

Grace said...

hello! i was just wondering a few things(one of my friends already posted this, but i thought i'd ask again)-

How many cameras are you using to film this movie?

What kind of camera is it, like what model?

And what is the movie editor you use?

thanks! my friends and i make a lot of home-movies, and we're looking to upgrade the productions a bit.;) have any advice?

tictac said...

really random question, but do have an actress laying suzannah? for some reason i was really attached to her in the book....

Rose said...

nice pics!

I agree with an earlier comment- I always thought Suzanne was a better sort than most of the other kids. I liked her, in a way.

The prom pics, like all pictures from formal things, are so fun!!!! Bear looks VERY nice in his outfit ;)

Emily Rose said...

Just gotta say, I love that Bear and Blance picture. *fangirl squeal*

Justine said...

I'm so excited to see the movie when it's done (: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING IT! I'm not sure how many times you might have heard it, but honestly, thank you so, so much! I'd say my favorite picture from this post was Bear and Blanche :D

Maryann Wright said...

I have to say, the pic of Blance and Bear looks promising. They physically look very much like one would imagine the book characters.

not to seem rude...but what has been going on lately? i mean, after day 18, was there a standstill or something? cuz nothing seems to be happening...

I am disappointed in the prom dress photos. I was really hoping that Rose and Blanche's dresses would be modest. They don't even follow the Vatican dress code.

Bernadette S. said...

Yeah I'm really curious to see what's been going on with the production lately.......so as soon as you have time, you have lots of anticipating fans. :-P

Awwww!!!!!!! Such cute pictures....

But what happened?!? I keep checking every day for an update, so I hope all is going well..... I am VERY anxious for more pictures soon!!!!!!!!
Keep up the good work.

Bernadette S. said...

I do agree with the comment about the dresses - at least, I am disappointed that they are not as modest as I had hoped for Blanche and Rose....but thank you for making them more modest than they were.

Allison said...

the dresses are GOOD!

Anonymous said...

Yeah guys.......the dresses are SO pretty up close! And it's a prom, come on! The most modest dresses out there are like that.....exactly like Rose and Blanche's actually. And a lot of the extras had prom dresses that were well.....prom dress modest. Even my dress!

Glad ya'll like the pictures! ^_^

kittycat said...

Alicia said...
