Like I said, there's a light at the end of the tunnel, or at least for the scene I'm currently filming. About three or four more shots and I'll be done with it. However, after that I still have to film another scene using the same set before I move on, so I'm not completely out of the woods yet. That reminds me of a really stupid joke with the "once you're halfway into the woods you're coming out of the woods." I'm sure you've all heard it. Anyway, after I film the scene after this one I can finally turn the set into a pile of rubble for one of the shots at the end of Scene 3. I think I might have the minifigs mounted on hidden columns underneath the rubble so that they will be resting on that and not the actual loose debris. That way, the stuff won't move around each frame and look like some sort of possessed wreckage. A similar problem is presented when using sand, but Jay Silver did an excellent job of not touching it at the end of his legendary film, "The Gauntlet."
That stupid forest joke also reminds me of this "logical thinking puzzle" that is equally stupid that I must share with you. Okay, so here's the riddle you have to answer: A customer destroys public property and then disappears. Even if he had been caught, he could not have been charged. Why? So that sounds like a fairly normal riddle. The answer is what gets me. The customer was a very overweight man who was being cremated. As he was being cremated, there was so much fat that it caught the crematorium on fire and burned it to the ground. I mean, come on! If they'll take that as an answer, I could think up a million other equally outrageous explanations.
