That's a wrap!
Echoes production is finally finished as of 12:59 pm on Sunday, December 7, 2008! This does not mean that the film is anywhere close to being done, however. Post-production is a long, and tedious process that I’m sure Kevin would love help on if any of you are willing.

Tonight at AMP...
Hey AMPlings, So we are making a lot of progress in filming Echoes. I have watched all of the footage, and it looks spectacular. There are a few more things we need to film before Thanksgiving break, but none of this requires in-AMP planning. This means that we will have an improv meeting! We are meeting at 9:30pm in Johnston 104 (yeah, I prefer Squires, too). The theme of the meeting will be...

Time to start filming!
Hey Everyone, It looks like the weather forecast for Saturday is 70 degrees and sunny. We will be meeting at the Duck Pond gazebo at 9:00 am. From the gazebo, we will walk to the bench to start filming. We decided that we will be filming the bedroom scene at Paul’s Apartment at 3:00 pm. We did not mention this before now, so it is not required that you make this part. If you are a...
oops!
So, if you haven’t noticed, I accidently updated the “Members” profiles under the “Officers” link as well. This issue will get fixed by either Kevin or myself as soon as possible.
Tonight's meeting
Alright, so tonight’s meeting went pretty well I think. We split up into two groups again to do some more planning now that the script is close to finalized. Props were a main focus this time, though. There are quite a few props, mainly for the party, that are needed and Kevin will be sending out an email to anyone that volunteered something. If you are interested in helping out, make...
