Friday May 26th 2006

This is from the Second Night "All Night" shoot. It was particularly difficult as we portrayed the wicked Priests of Baal and child sacrifice. They even had a live baby there for some of the parts. It was sort of hard to watch. My son's Gentry (17) & Braedon (14) were there with Steve's son Brady Richards (16).  They excused the youth under 18 and women for the Child Sacrifice part and the Baal worshipping.

Here are some of the Videos I took:
(Windows Media Player files. Click on the Title on the left to view the video)

Baby Sacrifice It was hard to watch, but we had to depict the evil Priests of Baal and their human sacrificing

Greg resting on the kings platform

We had no place to sit all night long, so we kept trying to sit wherever we could.

Checking camera angles

No idea why this guy wore a dust mask... maybe because there was lots of dust? equipment? health?

They had to cut out a lot of Baal's lap to place a light there.

Lunch time came 6 hours after the crew got there, or just before midnight.  We had been there for 7 hours at this point.

Steak, chicken, potatoes & salad. Not too shabby for the middle of the west desert at midnight!
