when u just up scheduling #yup #film

 There is an ancient Chinese proverb that says, "Zach London must go on a whatsapp call at 5:42 PM on a Friday to make a schedule for his project." And whoever said that is stupid, because Zach London went on call at 6:42 PM. Do better, China.


me n gang on da call
 
We decided on a strategy for the schedule, splitting up the workload into 2's. 2 weeks Pre-Production, 2 weeks production, 2 weeks post-production. No one's ever thought of this before. We want to have a good idea of what we're doing before we all leave for STN, so we can hit the metaphorical ground running once we get back. We want to start filming by the second week of March, which will also free up Spring Break for us to do any filming we would need during the week. By the end of March, we should be fully editing the film, finishing it up by the first week of April. 

You can now bet on whether we finish this project on time on Kalshi, Polymarket, Hard Rock Bet, or wherever you dabble in a little degeneracy! I'd take the under; we seem to be pretty locked.
