Mermaid and Puppet Girl…

Jun 26, 2024

Just three more of Lilli’s picks from Monday’s rehearsal. One of the trickiest parts of shooting a Rogue performance is catching little extras happening on the edge of the stage, often at the same time as in the center. Here the mermaid, Emily, sits in her “tank” while she talks talks to Jazz, who most of the time is covering all the band and sound oddities like chains ito trash can lids, odd drums, tamborine, etc.

In the second shot here Katie, Caleb and Moxie (on roller skates) begin a number…

This is Katie and Bre, two of the strongest voices, singing a duet…

That finishes six of the twelve Lilli picked – all I can manage today. Again, not hetting them into the folio yet – next week for catch-up. Shooting dress rehearsal this evening – working on our anniversary. We are celebrating Sunday.

Tonight I’m taking pen and paper to make a list, in order, to help my switch between camera/lens combinations as numbers change – it’s a fast paced performance.
