Serpent Lake Shooting Day 15
We had a few technical difficulties but other then that filming went smoothly!  It was nice to work once again with actress Mallory Jones. She goes above and beyond the duty of acting. She said she got more into her character this time and wasn't so rushed like in Fields. Was the water cold for her?  Yes. Was the blood sticky for her? Yes. She enjoyed all of it!! There was times though where she got some lake water in her month and just about lost her breakfast!! Still a very special thanks to Mallory Jones.

It was my first time to work with actor James Maxwell and Andy Howell. Both did a very good job!! And the man of the hour, Actor Larry Howell (who I worked with before on my Star Wars fan films) pulled off the best comedic performance I've ever seen!! Scene 10 will be one of the scenes out of Serpent Lake that fans will remember!! It was a good!

Writer/Director Joel Trujillo Day Two Of Shooting
Day 2 was another great day of filming. The weather cooperated with us.
Cast and crew where at their 110% best on filming and getting that right scenes with less takes. Costumes looked great and the water was just right. Just ask actor Mark Espinoza. LOL!! The heat was a little hot making it too where the cast and crew drank more water and didn't touch the food tray till dinner time. That night it didn't take long for everyone to hit the sack!!
