We're busy working on a few things... Namely a movie. That means the actual editing (i.e. color correction, among other things). That means working on press releases. That means preparing some Q&As with cast members to post on this blog.
Not to mention that some of us are feeling under the weather. (Could it possibly be swine flu? We hope not!)
Such is post-production...

Welcoming Jakob Fans
Today, we put up a "Welcome Page" for Under Jakob's Ladder on Facebook. What does this mean for you?
Well, if you're not a "fan" yet (we're speaking Facebook language here), then you will be greeted with this page. (Yes, even non-Facebookers get to see the page. But if you don't have a Facebook profile, or are not logged in, Facebook only allows a limited viewing.)
What if you are a fan already?... Don't worry. Nothing should really change for you. Anytime you click over to see what's happening with Under Jakob's Ladder, you'll still be taken to the wall. (But, if you feel like you missed out on the whole welcoming bit, don't despair. All you have to do is click on the "Welcome" tab. Right next to the "Info" tab.)
We're still working out some bugs. So, if you see anything strange (spelling errors, etc.), please let us know.
Got any suggestions for something we've missed? Drop us a line. Write a comment.
Not a fan yet? Then, by all means... Become a fan today! Visit our Facebook page and click on the "Become a Fan" button at the top of the screen.

Film Day 20 -- Final Day on the Set
Date: Saturday, May 16, 2009
Location: Interior -- Opening Chess Match
Film: Under Jakob's Ladder
Final day of filming... First pages of the script...
Yes, the script opens with a big chess scenes with our Chess Master (played by Pete Barker) and Young Nikolai (Stephan Amenta). And it filmed on our last day on the set.
We had lots of background actors this day. You get a bit of a sense of the number from these pictures.
And finally, a shot of Bill and Lisa. Not only were they on set as our EMT people, but here they also played the owners of the store where the chess match was being played.
Well... That's a wrap! (Which meant we had to get Jeff Stewart to the airport to catch his flight back to London. That, and of course, we had to strike the set. And then, maybe get some much-needed rest!)

Film Day 19.5 -- The Crew's "Day Off"
Date: Friday, May 15, 2009
Location: Interiors/Exteriors -- Prison/Field
Film: Under Jakob's Ladder
Alright. This date was technically supposed to be our day off. Or rather, it was part of the backup plan in case we needed another day of filming. But when we finished all the prison scenes on Thursday, this became our "day off".
Except, it wasn't a day off! No. We filmed...
But we did have a more relaxed pace. We filmed some cutaways in the prison. We filmed some shots in the field. (There were cows in that field, so you had to watch where you stepped.)
We also had to pack up the truck with all the equipment for Saturday's shoot. We even talked about going over to the off-site location to set up ahead of time all the lights, etc. But, frankly, everyone was a tad too tired. No, we decided that we'd rather get up at the crack of dawn to set up for tomorrow's shoot.
That was our "day off".
