Can I get a Gantt chart?
I’m an extra in a scene that’s shooting overnight tonight, with a call from 11:00 pm-10:30 am. Our home schedule is going to be awfully strange for the next couple of days. I’ll prep two nights of dinners this afternoon — tomorrow will be slow cooker pepper steak, so I can get it ready and stick it in the fridge for my husband to plug in while I’m still on set. Kid has some activities that will require chauffeur duties before and after dinner for the next couple days. Both Kid and my husband have lunch plans tomorrow. Thursday evening is the 48 Hour Film Project screening. Bright and early Friday morning, we need to cart Kid to the airport for a summer trip he’s taking.
It’s not only that we have a lot to do, but the timing is complicated. I knew my project management experience would come in handy someday.
Now to try to figure out when I’m going to work in sleep. I remember overnight shoots — we shot three or four nights in a row when I was an extra in the mid-90s — but I was a much younger woman then and an all-nighter wasn’t a big deal.
