this is an unusual one for me (directing people) further down is the text & essentialy the story board (5 mins in notepad to write it) "to film it took just under 2 hours" Location: Liverpool, "Bootle Strand" car park sunday 11th march 2007 Concept: watcher & immortal, information exchange Specs: the ONLY audio recoarded (on set) was the talking "out side" the car (because the car park is next to bus depot) the main dialog was recoarded in a little car at croxteth park (but the footage you see "inside the car") is in a multi the story car park the cars sound fx were ALL custom made for the scene as was the watcher database & cell tracking graphics and other ambient fx (car park background noise was stretched to fill external scene) onscren text was done in vegas (as was all the editing) text noise fx was from "the sorce" :) mark will overlay the apropriate music to finalize reflecting on it: the idea of Rogue Warrior is for those who wish to forget duncan killed connor in highlander 4 (and we'll explain why hes not in highlander 5) lol i think the car door sounds (for the watcher) sound awsome for a post edit (as does marks) the background noise on the external dialog shots was unavoidable due to the enviroment, i liked the opening scene feeling dark and moody, the acting could be improved the scene still needs music and tweeking for the final edit a five min idea in notepad created a 6 min scene lol most memrable moments: you hear marks car start (it did'nt) we actualy had to push it to get it going ROFL it was ment to start right after he said "ok were done" when ste said its an honnor, mark said "ok lad" lol i used the "keep it rollin" from a blooper were i was about to stop the camra, blooper ? theirs loads, maybe one of us will add them LOL so heres the 5 min text file (cheep story board so mark and ste had a rough idea of what i wanted before we got their) there are slight changes and improvisations on location that reflect diffently to the text Stage Direction: marks sitting in car waiting for the watcher, usual pans around car park and maybe an external car park shot looking up "to represent hes parked IN THEIR on a high level" shot of steves car entering the car park all fx 100% post edit (even the hand break and keys) LOL as the car pulls in the parking space (behind marks car) you get a few mirror shots (marks car perspective) maybe shot of steve taking lap top from passenger seet inbetween marks waiting & watching then a ground shot of steves car door opening (with hand on door) foot steps out follow'd by half body shot (floor upwards) showing lap top under arm (no watcher tatoo though.. pitty) {ye dont see steves face properly until he's sitting in the car} more mysterios and dark this way (also make the fans wonder, no walking stick ? so is that methos or what ?) "steve" knock on window, "mark" leans over and pulls door handel watcher gets in, "external shots as he gets in" Script:cam on stes face then marks face mix n match views Steve- joe sent me mark- have you got the information ? steve- i like that, straight to the point (open lap top, powers up like end game) steve- your hunting for connors killer ? mark- yes steve- joe said you should watch your head because your prity out matched mark- sounds familiar steve- no realy you are, you should see his stats, you've taken (how many heads) beep beep show the kills ratio mark- like i told joe and adam last time, i dont keep score i just try to survive from day to day steve- well connors killers stats are in the thousands "beep beep" steve- possibly the highest we have on recoard mark- so thats his killer ? were is he ? steve- we have a watcher oh him.. said hes in scotland, looking for you before you find him i guess mark- ok i think were done "mark starts the car" steve- o.. erm right "steve scuffels to get the lap top shut and open the door (maybe waffel something like it was an honour to meet you) or what ever as hes half way back to his car, mark steps out and says" mark- why did'nt joe send adam steven- adam ? o you mean peirson ? mark- yes steve- hes been transferd from the methos chronicles and hes compiling information on the sorce mark- (shrug it off like a whatever and say) the sorce is just a legend steve- so was canwolf mark- kinda laugh "if ye can" steve- and as for ariman and a dark quickning the watchers wont rule anything out mark- "look of confusion & and a maybe kinda/maybe expresion" steve- (hand on his car door handel) opens door and says steve- good luck (short pause) duncan macleod (pause then as hes half way in his car) steve- of the clan macleod, door shuts car starts moves away then a kinda wide round pan then you get in and leave kick a$$ foooockin scene for us noobies.....PMSL

So, anyone who is a regular at www.livestream.com/weatherkim knows that I like to sing behind the scenes while I prepare my forecast for WUSA TV 9 in Washington DC. Within the first few weeks of communiting into Northwest DC in January 2005 I must have heard Dream Weaver on the radio at least 4 or 5 different times. It became my "go to" song and was often in my head at work. Unfortunately, it became *everyone's* song in their head at channel 9 (including Mike Walter and Andrea Roane) as I ...
