Document Rooms/Shots and Casting Call List

Jared, Ganesh and I went out to Astin Mansion to gather references of the Mansion itself for pre-production planning and to test out lenses/camera shots from the script as of now. We had initial concerns in a room full of mirrors that was in the script, but after testing we were able to figure out it was possible to shoot without getting reflection from the camera guy in the shot. We took out the Cannon 5D, a 2Ti, 18-50mm lens, 50 prime lens, 70-300mm lens, and the 8mm lens. I took shots of all possible rooms we would possibly film in, so during preproduction we are able to visually reference the rooms to the group as well as plan set and lighting design.
