Day 8: Day before Shoot



Today, I felt like I moved an army to Zichron Ya'akov due to what was involved. All of our luggage was crammed into a mid size car and this was no easy feat. My parents have been with me on this journey, well, not exactly....I go off and do my thing and they go off and do theirs... Oh, and did I forget to mention we had an additional guest, my sister with us too. Four adults and tons of luggage.

Anyway, my mother performed a miracle and she could have won a contest for "how much luggage can one fit in a mid-size car" along with 4 adults! Truly amazing.

So once we got to Zichron and found our home for the next two weeks, we established the production office, my cockpit for coordinating the shoot (see picture). The small lodge is a converted section of a house that is rented out by an American family living here (designed for guests).

I can't believe we are on the 'eve of shooting.' Tomorrow my crew is picking me up early and off we go - heading north to Rosh Pina, Affula, and my old stomping grounds Beit Shean. After that we will make an unexpected trip into Tel-aviv for a big interview. So lots of driving, lots of filming and lots of stops in general. My producer is just as excited as I am. So whatever we forget for tomorrow - we can dream about it. LOL

Have a great one, Leora
