We ran the episode twice last night in the space, and it looks and sounds great thus far. A "special guest actor" who will be appearing in the next episode came by to record a voiceover by his character that precedes him in this one -- the next episode, directed by Michael Gardner, is mostly a conversation between me as George Westinghouse and this actor as . . . someone else famous. I'm now growing my facial hair out so I can wind up with Westinghouse's distinctive walrusy look by next month - I'll trim it like that for the weekend of the show, then take the whole thing off and go to my new warm-weather look with no beard and lighter hair.
I have to get a little sound work and a lot of video work done now -- and in not much time if I want to see Cat's Cradle tonight. I realized only a couple of days ago that my sickness had knocked out all the opportunities for me to see any of the UTC#61 shows at Walkerspace, as I had Penny Dreadful all the remaining days. Tonight, I was planning on going into The Brick post-Notes from Underground and pre-teching the show before the tech proper tomorrow morning. Well, it's pretty bad form not to see any of the UTC shows (I am on the artistic board of the company, after all), so I'm going to try and make it to the show tonight, then rush over to The Brick and work there from 10.30 pm onward. If I wind up there past 3 am, I'll just spend the night and be there ready to go for the 9.00 am tech.
