Recently, I went to South Dakota to do some preliminary work for our filming there next month. Although I had quite a bit to do, I welcomed the opportunity to bond with nature.It's easy to get burned out while working on a film. The hours are long, there's constant pressure and the work seems never-ending (and often is.)
That's why I appreciate the moments when I can stop what I'm doing and marvel at the beauty of the world around me... trees, fresh air, wildlife, and my own solitude. Those few days were a nice getaway from production.
With the holidays coming up, I'm thankful that this film has brought me closer to the place where I grew up. I'll get to spend Thanksgiving with my family which hasn't happened for quite awhile. I get to hear the crunch of fallen leaves beneath my feet and witness the changing of the seasons which doesn't happen quite so dramatically for us on the West Coast.
