Molweni in Kloof was the place to be yesterday where I went to confirm the principal locations to shoot Impendulo. The place is beautiful, its like a hidden treasure from the world, untouched, innocent and raw. I cannot wait to engage with the rest of the community, my kid actors, this place is a God send. Just waiting for paperwork to be completed and let the games begin. Uber excited.
Thanks once again to Zluh, Philangethemba, Tholulwazi High School for allowing me to be part of your lives for the day. It was an honour, till my next visit which will hopefully be audition day!

May 29 - Part 2
Location Scouting 2
Location scouting went well yesterday with the Olympus camera. Only problem was the zoom distance was way too short, but I beleive I got the pics that I needed to take.
When I arrived at Pat Ramsay Gardens in Moore Road (one of my Oscar winning locations), I was surprised to see two dogs inside the park/gardens keeping guard of the swings and the see saw. This put a dent to my scouting. How do I film in a location supervised by two vicious dogs?
The taxi ranks were buzzing as usual and I don't forsee any problems filming here, but for safety I am going to have to bring some security along with me.
South Beach was abuzz with hot surfers who couldn't wait to ride the beautiful waves at North Beach this Saturday - so I got distracted a bit . Yeah I might not be a water baby, but I know a good wave when I see one.
Now to consolidate the information and break that script down!
Check out some of the pics:
