Had the worse Assistant Director ever, who was poisoning
the rest of my team.

Had a Production Manager which at first I thought was not
bad, till he had a mood swing when things went wrong.

Had a script writer who threaten me, "You know who am i?"

I laughed, when the people he told me he knew, who I also knew,
I called and made a background check, and they told me that they
hardly knew him. And ofcourse, I told them about his attitude.
Currently, he is banned in the place I work.

Jeez, I've never met anyone so full of himself.
He sounded like he owned the world.
His writing for that feature wasn't that great either.
He is really a joke to this industry.

Least said, I'm so glad I survived the shoot despise all the negatives.
Was pretty happy with the end result of the shots and the directive of
the actors though.

I enjoyed and respected the DP that I worked with in this shoot,
who I also asked my Executive Producer today, to have his background check;
and my EP told me, that this DP was one of the best DPs he ever worked with.

I salute him! And he was the only one during the 5 days fully understand the
pain I had to go through with the negative vibe from my production team.

But we all know, the main cause was that one bad apple.

He gave me an advise, that he always shoot and only shoot with his own team.

And from this shoot, I learned that I should only shoot with assistants that I'm
familiar with, and by recomendation. Never I would risk my shoot again with
a bad apple.

This industry is full of them.

But I'm glad I survived this shoot. This shoot make me appreciate my current
team even more. And proves that I can survive as a captain eventhough some
of my assistants had made treason on me.

I salute the Camera department and the crew that helped me pull through.

With the editing and final product, I won't fail you guys.

Thank you.
