08/23/09 Cake Baby Productions finishes THE TEDIOUS EXISTENCE OF TERRELL B. HOWELL

Sunday was the last day of filming on the Cake Baby Production of the short film THE TEDIOUS EXISTENCE OF TERRELL B. HOWELL, which was written & produced by Kelly Silverman and directed by her husband David Silverman. The production had a seven day shooting schedule and was completed on schedule.

I was on set as a general production assistant but also provided production stills for the film. The film is an under stated drama with subtle hints of dry comedy about a married man (played by Steve Coulter) whose life takes a drastic turn when he gets involved with a woman he encounters on the street.

Although I had very little to do with this production I was able to once again work with many people that I hadn't worked with in a long time such as Renonda Anderson (make up), Donna Wong (script supervisor), Alex Turner (PA), Karli Brooks (actress), and Brent Brooks (PA). Working on this production, for me, was mostly fun and entertaining due to the fact that I wasn't responsible for much of the actual work on the film (which was a relief believe you me).

I am glad that I was given the opportunity to work on this short film as it gave me the opportunity to work with many filmmakers that I haven't worked with before and I had a lot of fun just being able to be on set and enjoying myself.

As the Silvermans take the film into post production I wish them all the luck especially since they hope to be able to have the film out to film festivals before the end of the year. I can't wait to see the final version when it is complete.
