Rehearsals

We had our first rehearsal today in DaJa Vu history. We started the day with David Nevill (Old Man Roberts) and Tom Thorne (Dick Solomon) David is hilarious. We were originally in talks with the great indie filmmaker Lloyd Kaufman to do a cameo appearence in the role, but he was unable to take part due to scheduling conflicts. But David is really taking the part and running with it, and we're kind of glad it didn't work out with Lloyd as David brings his own brand of twisted humor to the role. Tom did a good job as well at balancing the professionalism and nervousness of novice news reporter Dick Solomon.

We also had all of the cops out today, which is comprised of David W. Scott as ex-sheriff Sam Hooper, Trent Stover as the current Sheriff Stephens, Scotty Schultz as Deputy Corman, and Derek DuQuesne as Deputy Loomis. We even had Raven Gabbard come out to go over his part, Coroner Michaelson. He's never acted before, so we wanted to get him out and used to being on camera, a lesson learned from out last production, Black Market Kidneys.

We worked out some problems and got to see how some of the stuff in the script is going to work out and added some really cool moments that help to define the characters.

It's all on tape, so if we don't post it on our website, I'm sure you'll get to see some of it on the DVD once the film is released.
