Devonte:"Yea."
Devonte:Two more takes.
I wanna do three takes of everything.
And speak a little louder!
Sean:So do you want me to say somethin?
Like "Yeah", "Okay" "I got..?"
Devonte:Just.. "OK"
Sean:Okay, I got ya.
"OK"
Devonte:One more.
[Sean clears his throat]
Sean:"OK"
[Television making lots of noise]
Want me to turn that down out there? The TV?
Devonte:Naw, that's OK. I mean,
It would add to cont.. the fact, that it's like 70s trailer.
It has continuity.
[Sean laughs hysterically]
Devonte:I haven't actually watched one, so I wouldn't know.
Sean:Okay, what's next?
Devonte:Okay, first of all,
Does your shoe have laces, or is it just a loafer or something?
Sean:Mine is just a loafer.
Devonte:Oh okay then.
I guess I can just do a little close up of you just doing like that.
Sean:Just kick back kinda taking my shoes off?
Devonte:Yeah since I can get a close-up of laces.
Sean:Okay
Devonte:O....Kay.
[Devonte lying] Oh one note, this camera has been known to malfunction.
So, don't be shocked if I ask for a re-shoot. When I order my new camera.
There.
[Asking Sean to remove his shoes] Two more tries of that.
Sean:Do you do all the editing yourself for this?
Devonte:Yea
If I hired somebody, that would cost money.
Sean:You ready?
Devonte:Yea
One more time,
[Devonte referring to editing question] I do have to worry about money for college.
[Sean laughs]
Sean:You ready?
Devonte:Yea
Ok now, well technically since this area is so small,
You can't actually like throw them.
So I guess I can just cut that part out.
Sean:I could throw em!
Out the door.
Devonte:Well I mean the intial idea like you'd
For the ones with laces, you like lace them off
And they kinda like kick them off.
But with loafers they have to be a little bit different.
So I guess I can just use the other teachers' kinda kickin' their shoes off
I'll just pray they don't notice that yours is missing.
Ok, unfortunately I need the shoes off and an over the feet shot
With you not in it!
Ok, now that's over with it.
Wait, do I have space?
Sean:It's tight in here, isn't it?
Devonte:Ok, the next shot is basically a close-up of putting of your foot
Onto your lap, and taking it off. I'm not sure if I have room shoot the shoe from both
sides.
So I guess I can just do one side.
Sean:Okay.
So it's kinda like this?
Devonte:Yeah.. except I have to have a close-up. So from here I would do
With your foot, and there which I can reach, I would do the other.
Sean:Okay.
Devonte:So while your doing this, the camera would be here. The other one would be there,
but I can't get in there.
Sean:Okay.
Devonte:Ok, I guess you can do it with your left one first.
Sean:Do you wanna go out and do it on that table out there?
I mean there's a table out there kinda set up like a desk.
I can take a chair out there?
Devonte:Well there's a podium here, you can just put it on the podium.
Sean:Whatever is good for you, I mean.
I know this office is tight.
Devonte:It would add to the continuity. You take them off in your office.
Yet you're mysteriously out here.
[Television noise]
Oh never mind.
[Referring to Television noise] Sean:Do you want me to turn it down?
Devonte:No, I just saw the word Michael Jackson; I'm like did he get arrested?
Oh no, never mind.
Sean:I heard he's gonna make a comeback.
Devonte: [inaudible]
Sean:So what do I do, just... here?
Devonte:Ya, just sit down there, and I guess.
Sean:Shoes off?
Devonte:..They're alreadly off.
From this sock, you take your left foot and put it right there
And take this sock off, and do the same with the other one.
Sean:So this one is this foot?
Devonte:Yeah, and when I'm over there, you do the other one.
Sean:I got you.
Devonte:[inaudible]
Sean:Man I gotta strain a little bit, but I can do it.
So you're saying the shot's gonna be me actually making the movement.
Devonte:Yeah
Sean:Getting it up here, and peeling the sock off.
Devonte:Yes
Sean:Do I throw the sock? Or what do I do?
Devonte:No just peel it off.
Sean:OK. You ready?
Devonte:Yeah.
Oh when you take your sock off, just keep your foot there so I can see.
Sean:Oh.. Okay.
[Sean laughs]
This is kinda funny actually.
Devonte:Why
Sean:'Cause.
Ready?
Devonte:Yeah, go.
[Sean continues to laugh]
Devonte:Ok, two more shots of that.
And what's so funny about it?
Sean:I don't know. You know, it's almost like um..
Even though I'm not doing anything, like your acting a little bit.
I've never done anything like that.
I've done a play when I was a kid, and that was about it.
Devonte:[Inaudible]
Sean:I'ma bring this leg up. Well.... no.
Devonte:You can do that, I can get on my knee. Can you actually put it up there?
Sean:You ready?
Devonte:Yeah.
One more try, then we're gonna do the other.
It sucks I have to show my senior project in school.
I have to change it a lot.
[Sean laughs]
Sean:You can't really do what you want, huh?
Devonte:My original intent was to actually have a teacher kill
A student, but then I had to find something stupid.
[Sean continues to laugh]
I drew a straw, and this was it.
Sean:You ready?
Devonte:Sure.
Ok now do the other.
[Lying] I'm praying that this camera won't malfunction.
Wait, it's already off, technically.
Sean:Oh it's off? Oh I got ya, keep it off.
Devonte:I'm praying that it won't malfunction.
Sean:Ready?
Devonte:.....Yeah.
Ok, and probably like aim your foot so it can be on the camera.
Like, it is intentional.
Sean:Like uh, like this?
Devonte:Yes!
Devonte:It's supposed to be, the film is supposed to be genuine.
But I'm trying to add to the cheesyness.
[Sean laughs]
Sean:Okay?
Devonte:Ok, got it?
Ok, one more.
Who knows, if this film becomes successful, I might do a sequel.
Sean:Ready?
Devonte:Yeah.
OK, now that's done. The next shot..
Sean:Shoes stay off?
Devonte:Yeah. [inaudible]
Then I'm gonna do a far shot of you relaxing,
while I edit in the odor crap.
And then I'm gonna do different angles and close-ups,
Of your face, your body and your feet, and then that's pretty much it.
Sean:OK.
Devonte:Ok, first prop them up so I can see how they move.
To see if I have to get any closer.
Try again.
Sean:I might need to do this on a desk. I feel like I'ma kill myself.
Devonte:Do you wanna do it on a desk?
Sean:Yea, I feel like I'm gonna fall over.
Devonte:Okay.
Sean:I'm scared. I'm gonna launch myself off the..
Devonte:I probably won't save you. I don't have any muscles left.
[inaudible]
Sean:Like that, Ok?
Devonte:Either way, which way do you wanna do it.
Sean:I would prefer, if I was to really do it,
That's the way i'd do it.
I'd feel the most comfortable at it.
Devonte:Ok, now. I'm gonna film that. Now put your foot up there.
"ACTION!"
Two more times.
One more.
And then the next shot is just you relaxing and,
Wiggling them, as you're killing people.
Sean:With them up here still right?
Devonte:With them up there.
And, what would you do if you're relaxing?
Sean:Kinda like this.
Devonte:OK, just need one shot of that.
And smile! You're being evil.
[Sean laughs]
We're not generally like, we're dying.
I'm gonna go to jail, but who cares.
I'm gonna get a close up of your face.
You were doing this last time right?
OK, "ACTION"!
OK, one mome time. And try to smile!
Sean:Okay.
Devonte: "ACTION"!
Ok the last shot is just doing different angles.
And you can be doing anything up here since the camera,
Is not on you.
[Devonte lying] If my camera did happen to malfunction,
What would be another good time to do this?
Cause, this camera has been known to do that.
Sean:It's always just this same time, except on Mondays.
It's not a good time for me.
Devonte:Well...
Sean:But, if, the "C" lunch is the best time. I'm normally in here.
Devonte:Ok, I'll put it on my computer today.
If it's bad I'll do it again tomorrow with a new camera.
That comes in today!
Oh since I actually have you in the shot,
You have to do that again.
Wiggle them a bit.
One last shot from here, then I'm done.
Then by then, lunch will be technically over.
Devonte:OK, I'm done.
Sean:Have you ever seen ah, like M. Knight, his first movie.
Have you ever seen it, it's just a short.
Devonte:What was it about?
Sean:He's out in the woods, and he's.
I've only seen it once. It's the beginning,
Or the end of it.
