Filming Rules

[Skywalker]

I think after the scare today
we need to set up some filming rules

1) When scheduling a filming date, allow at least 3 days before the intended to date in order to inform the cast and crew. This'll allow enough time for scheduling conflicts to be solved

any other rules you can think of, feel free to add

i think it should be A FULL WEEK in advance, for a better chance to work issues out and to find all details out better

[Eric T. Jones]

Well, being that we do want some filming done this spring break, I think just a day in advance- not something like, at 10:00 PM, "oh, we're gonna film tomorrow."

yeah, yeah. It's a good idea, one I advocate certainly. My excitement to set up filming tomorrow was so that we could fit in one extra day. Anyway, Monday was going to be a no film day up until the time I told you. Maybe it was okay sooner, like Saturday, but I acted on the best information available to me at the time. Enough in my defense.

We should have one list that we modify, like Wikipedia: Those without mod powers will make addendum posts which will then be copied and pasted into the list. Rather than having a whole bunch of idea scattered all about they would be in one very long post.
