Went to Sofia today helped Sam & Jason build the crane. Had a great conversation with Gervas our casting guy. We discussed Hip Hop & Politics. He asked me if I felt i was part of the Hip Hop movement..Funny shit..
I told him I was a break dancer @ 11 & 12. As a teen I was a graffitti writer. In My 20's I made beats for a hip hop group. You tell me who's part of the Hip Hop movement..
Anyway Sam & Jason did the finishing touches on the crane & we went back to base camp (the condos). There we did some camera & audio tests. All went well with very little difficulty. Besides dinner coming an hour late, as usual.
earlyer at Sofia saw a video with some local Emcee's DJ's & 2 Graff artists. All they needed was some B Boys break dancing. I was wearing a Def Jam Shirt that day. All the homies from Dar dug it. Iswa or Ibra Is one of the cooler cats in the Sofia group. I ment to get a ladder today for booming we will see if one appears. it seems every penny is getting pinched on this production.
We still have no contracts. I was paid $100 I was owed for some of the travel meds. By miricle it seemed. Production still owes me for insurance & the xlrs that were confiscated in Dubai. Also it appears I wont be getting my kit rental fee till 30 days after principle photography ends. Jankyness & discontentment Abound..
