excited, terrified
So tomorrow is the 'big day'; I'm getting up at 3.45am to begin shooting at Lhamo Tso's house at 4.30am. Today I put together a shooting schedule and a draft script for the documentary, which, at the moment, is looking rather thin on the ground, seeing as we can't interview Dhondup's parents or the kid's teachers or 'foster parents' (a couple who look after around 40 kids in a dorm on-site at their school). I'm just hoping the kids are going to say something amazing. Tomorrow is going to be long; we start at half-four, film Lhamo Tso baking bread, then follow her to the market, stay with her until 9, then rush back to our office to set up a interview set (with no lighting or microphones...), interview Lhamo Tso and her niece, then mission to the kids schools to film them in class, playing, in their dorm etc and of course interview the eldest daughter (she's 12). I can't wait for tomorrow, but I'm also bricking it. Please cross all of your fingers and toes for me...x
