Last weekend we filmed the pilot for J Beat and the Beatastics!
J Beat and the Beatastics (Title pending) is a kids show about a group of High School kids in a Rock Band. I can't say much more due to the confidentiality agreement I signed, but details will follow as I am allowed to release them. The show has not been picked up yet, but will be shopped around to Disney, Nickelodeon, ABC Family, etc.
My character is the Bassist in the band.
THE SHOOT
We had a really early call time, 6:30AM in Santa Monica.
The first part of the shoot was the Garage Scene. Basically it is a scene of the band Rocking out to one of their songs in the garage. This was one of the most fun scenes to shoot because I really got to let loose. I got a little too ambitious on the Bass, and gave myself a blood blister on my thumb, lol. I think we got some really good stuff.
The wardrobe designer was so funny. We went through about 5 different looks before settling on the final outfit.
We took our lunch break around noon, which was perfect for me because I had a callback for a Kraft Cheese commercial that I was able to run to.
The second shot of the day was a set up at a school. We wrapped at about 6:00pm.
The following day we did a series of confessionals. I had a blast shooting this thing.
