Movie production expenses = $130. Most of that was buying sympathy flowers for someone on the cast or crew. Purchases had died off for a while but a $20 purchase showed up yesterday and MH confirmed it was for props.
Eating out = $274
That's for 18 out of 22 days. Well on track with the $500 gift money we allocated for food. MH has skipped a couple of meals (due to time) and has been treated out to a few meals.
Everyone is getting tired and tensions are rising. MH is trying to smooth things over. That seems to be how his role is shaping up. But as people are venting to him, they are paying for his meals. It's not anything major but just seems to be getting worse as people are more exhausted.
Transportation: $20
Unchanged and this is probably all that he will spend.
Everything continues to be going pretty well on the movie set. 🤞🏼
Total movie investment: $6,000
We set aside $3,000 gift money to cover the hotel, airfare and all of the above. We invested $2,000 cash. & MH will lose ~$1,000 of wages re: time off.
As of today, feeling like it's very much worth it. Still don't have any expectation of making any of this money back. (Too many things would have to still go right.) To this point, things have gone as well as could possibly be and we are feeling very happy with this investment. If nothing else comes of it, it was an amazing opportunity.
