Entry #17
I found more footage of me helping Alex near the beginning of production.
[00:10] Cut to footage of Tim sitting in front of a window. Tim: "…I had to do that about five times. "
[00:12] Alex: [offscreen] "That's a good story." Tim drinks out of a can.
[00:14] Cut to later footage, the lighting is darker and Tim is now standing in front of the window. The Operator can be seen out the window partially obscured by plants for the rest of the video.
[00:14] Alex: "Jay, if you wanna stand where Brian's gonna be, and read his lines for me."
[00:18] Jay: "Yeah. I got the script here."
[00:20] Alex: "All right."
[00:21] The camera cuts again, it is zoomed in a little closer. In this section, Tim appears sleepy, and there is distortion in the shadow of his head.
[00:21] Jay: "Am I out of the frame?"
[00:22] Alex: "Yeah, you're good. Uh, you know where we're starting, Tim?"
[00:25] Tim: "The, uh, 'Why did you come back'?" While speaking, Tim rubs his eye and appears tired.
[00:28] Alex: "Yes."
[00:28] Tim: "All right."
[00:29] Alex: "And, uh, let's uh… Just, whenever you're ready."
[00:35] Tim: "Okay."
[00:36] Tim: "So why'd you come back?"
[00:37] Jay: "I had to."
[00:38] Tim: "Was it because of Sarah?"
[00:40] Jay: "I thought I'd be able to leave her behind along with this rest of this town, but I just can't seem to get her out of my head."
[00:44] Tim: "I thought you said you were over her."
[00:45] Jay: "I thought so, too."
[00:46] Alex: "That… That's far enough."
[00:47] Jay: "Stop there?"
[00:48] Alex: "Yeah, let's not do too much, uh."
[00:50] Tim: "Who, uh, who wrote that dialogue with you, Alex?"
[00:52] Alex: "That was just me…"
[00:52] Tim: "Okay"
[00:53] Alex:"Uh, I do all the script for this."
[00:54] Tim: "Oh."
[00:55] Alex: "Uh, you know where Brian is?"
[00:57] Tim: "I think he said he was just running down to the store for some snacks or something. He should be back any minute."
[01:01] The video jumps in and brightens for a moment in the middle of Tim's sentence."
[01:01] Alex: "Okay."
[01:03] Tim: "Hey, can I, uh, can I get some water or something?"
[01:05] Alex: "Yeah. "
[01:06] Jay: "Is this one yours?"
[01:06] Alex: "Yeah."
[01:07] Jay steps into the frame to give Tim a bottle of water.
[01:08] Jay: "No problem."
[01:09] Alex: "Why are you wearing a jacket?"
[01:11] Jay: "It's pretty cold in here."
[01:13] Alex: "I'm comfortable."
[01:14] Tim hands the water bottle back to Jay.
[01:14] Jay: "I feel like you've got the A/C cranked up or something."
[01:17] Jay moves to walk back off the frame.
[01:17] Jay: "Uh, you left the camera on."
[01:18] Alex: "Oh. Uh, well, we're gonna go through it a couple more times, anyway, but—"
[01:21] The audio and video begin to distort and the video is frozen.
[01:25] Audio distortion stops, cut to black.
[01:27] White text appears:
From that point until the end of the tape, the picture is frozen.
The usual audio and video problems are still present in this clip. But there's something else about it that really disturbs me.
I don't remember any of it ever happening.
I've decided to go back to that house. There has to be something in it that I missed.
[01:50] Cut to black.
[01:51] Video ends.
