We are shooting our movie on HD, which makes colors very true to what the eye sees. Therefore, whites and blacks are acceptable, but please don’t go overboard. Try to avoid white and black please!! Big chunks of white and/or black at night are a no-no! Florescent and extremely bright colors are a no-no-and-no! Our story takes place during the hot, HOT days of August in a fictitious town called Pico Mundo, set in California. The time period is contemporary – now, 2011. The setting is a smallish, quaint, beautiful, friendly desert town where everyone knows and really likes one another. Our town is a truly wonderful, happy, healthy place to live, raise your kids, enjoy your life. A piece of heaven on earth, but then there are these creepy things that almost happen….
