I had a lot of fun shooting that little Ten Days from Mars movie. I also learned a lot. Doing it in black and white made for some interesting shifts in colors that I hadn’t anticipated. My personal assistant’s white coat made her very visible in even the darkest shots. While a black outfit was a bit harder to see on screen. Yeah, that was me wearing the black trenchcoat. Did you really expect me to shoot a film about going to Mars with all the guns I could acquire and not put myself into it somehow? There was a story to it all of course. We get on Mars and immediately march out to deal with the bad guy we were sent to deal with. That’s a euphemism for “kill it until it is dead” just in case you don’t speak Politician…
