The reason I lost my temper... The walkies were not fully functional. All the departments were a 100ft away from me. I was standing in the middle of the street with 6 beautiful but melting dancers. The light was about to turn and I was trying to keep them from getting hit by a bus. As well as wrangle pigeons. And I felt like I was getting heat stroke.
Finally we got it though - great footage of the six women dancing in the fantasy scene all around the Marcus character in the street. It turned out beautifully and no one even lost an eye. People kept pulling over to watch. And, nobody caught a bomb from the birds – we were so grateful (especially after the amount of bread we fed them!)
Mark Reid visited the set for a second time yesterday looking dapper on his way home from work.
I posed for a picture for my makeup crew holding a tortured gingerbread man – they asked me to pull my fangs out - which I did obligingly.
I love all my departments. For being troopers, not complaining and doing such a brilliant job. Again the footage was top notch. This is no low budget film…

Hilarious and perfect. Of course you did anything and everything to protect your amazing shot. Love it. The rapid throw, the random trajectory, anything to keep those %#$@!* birds distracted.
