The Senior Prank - Wrap Party

Here are some pictures of the cast party we had on Sunday afternoon/evening!  Most of the cast and some of the crew had already left, but we still had a nice crowd and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!  Lots of good food and great fellowship!  And I ended the evening with a quick dip in the pool and a long soak in the hot tub in the moonlight.  It was so pretty how the water was lit up after dark!

Philip, Andrew, Nate, and Nate, good friends of mine for the past 2 years:

Our lovely hostess and our executive producer:

One of our beautiful actresses, Nancy Fondriest:

David Cook, our amazing locations scout/manager, production manager, catering supervisor and crafty provider:

Nate Eckerson, who came down to visit on the last night and ended up becoming 2nd AD and 2nd 2nd AD because Andrew and Philip were recruited to be cast at the last minute:

Rick Garside, our 1st AD (assistent director):

Cheryl and Amber!  Cheryl took a lot of our behind-the-scenes pictures and also served as the director's personal assistant (she's his daughter), and Amber played the role of Grace.

Arel and Sheila!  Sheila had a speaking role as one of the students, and Arel got to come be an extra!

Audrey worked hard in the art department for the last two weeks of filming: 

Lynn, our 1st AC (assistant camera):

Carys (in the middle) played the role of Karly:

Brian, the other half of our art department:

Andrew Bolzman, our 2nd AD (assistant director):

James Suttles, our DP (director of photography):

Donna did an excellent job helping in the makeup department!

Josh Murray, who played Pastor Mark.  I will also add that Josh won the Best Actor award at Gideon Film Festival this year!  He is an incredible actor and has been a friend of mine for two years.  I was glad we got to be in a movie together, even if we didn't have any real onscreen interaction.  :-)

Ken Altman, our producer:

Ryan helped the camera crew for the last two weeks.

Sandra, the director's lovely wife, and Philip Bolzman, our 2nd 2nd AD:

It was a great party!  It was so fun to relax and have fun with everybody.  It was hard to believe the production was over.  I was very much in denial.  It was such a wonderful experience and I hated for it to be over, but I was so exhausted that I was ready to come home, too.  The Lord has really blessed me with the ability to move on to the next thing and be content with wherever I am at the time.  It's quite remarkable, because that is not something I would have expected of myself (which is why it is a gift!).
