That’s a wrap, baby.
16 AUG 2009 marked the end of principal photography for the recording of The Steps in Chattanooga. A dynamic dramatic series built around the writing, acting and directing of Dylan Kussman, The Steps web-i-sodes put some worth back into watching video.
He’s actually got a script. They’ve gotten actors to perform the story. They recorded it so that it looks good on the screen. You can hear the sound clearly.
They’re ahead of some of the other guys.
If you had a chance to catch the first three webisodes some months ago, I know you’ll want to see what’s next. Kussman and Cofield plan a re-release of the whole set in a few months.
I saw what they were up to as I was on the set making some stills for the accompanying ad campaign. I’m telling you, it’s going to be good. They’ve got a lock on some solid material.
My guess is that after this effort, they’ll need to collapse for a few weeks. After they’re resuscitated by the Swedish Bikini Beach Volleyball team, it’ll be time to hit the tape deck for some editing and to watch some theatrical blood spill onto the cutting room floor.
Tim Cofield, the cinematographer, landed a supporting grant from CreateHere; they can be assured that he got something done with the funding. Not only did I see him do a sound job of making the video recordings, I had the chance to see his skills grow and develop as the weeks went on.
The Steps has its own official website. You can sign up for the newsletter over there. I had a look at it; I approve.
Some of my still photos are over there. They also feature some behind the scenes video. It was a great privilege to squeeze off a few frames on the set. The actors and crew were so cooperative, they completely renovated my thinking about photographing people.
Many thanks to the cast and crew for their cooperation.
Check out the website at followthesteps.net It’s the best way to keep up with the production.
