For 4 1/2 to 5 stars and some change on the side if creating a swede as a group, the biddies and I were back at it! Although all three of us had SOL chasing us consistently for the last two weeks, we utilized technology more with prepping to combat some tough blows. You can see us hard at work here:

We agreed during this ‘Chop it Up’ session that our target would be Season 4 ending of episode 5 Alliances and two other major scenes in episode 6 Margin of Error. I imported these episodes into Movie Maker and trimmed these particular parts so we could practice our scenes. Melinda provided a link where we were able to print our scripts. Finally, we agreed on location shots and day in which to record.

We met at the Greyhound station, with it being so cold we opted against shooting our episode from a rooftop and instead used old green plastic toy army men for our first clip where Herc and Sydnor are planting a surveillance camera. Our next shot was of Marlo arranging what seemed to be a pick up for re-up. We chose to combine actual footage along with a reenactment of Marlo and Chris’s conversation. This was filmed by Melinda, recreated by Desa and myself in full roughneck costume. Note we shot next to a utility closet with a sign which reads ‘Sprinkler Room’, symbolic of the lye Chris and Snoop chooses to lay over their victims. Our last scene was shot within the Greyhound station to give context to Marlo’s attempt to evade the detectives who have surveillanced his previous conversation. All three of our group members ‘The Biddies’ can be seen in our production below.
