About Us

Mavericks have always had an edgy, rebellious connotation to them. Originally referred to unbranded cattle that strayed from the herd, putting their ownership in doubt. Fast forward 100 years later...and it is used to describe a person who strays from and does not follow the thinking of a group he or she belongs to, or who rebels against accepted ideas or to a herd mentality. "Maverick" thus came to generally mean an individualistic and independent thinker.

Rehearsals

Rehearsals?  Psst...Who needs rehearsals?   YOU DO!




This is your best time to work out the kinks in your story, your dialogue and your blocking with the actors.  All of which need to look and sound professional.  I also suggest that if you're not the one shooting the movie, get your DP or Camera Department to go to rehearsals as well (tell them to bring the storyboard material that you gave them).  That way, they can see the the blocking also, and with the storyboards, they will have an idea of what going on, they can plan and be ready to rock n roll on the day of the shoot.  It helps the entire company to be firing on all cylinders come shoot day.  That is what you want because you're on a schedule and nobody is helping you keep that schedule, except you.
