TV Shoot Day 1!

We met with the crew at our campsite in the afternoon.  It was a great chance to get to know everyone especially because we will all be traveling together for the next week or so! 

We made some major changes to our Tour Bus to prepare it for the show (besides cleaning :). One such change was the huge ShaeLaurel sign installed on the side of our RV!

Isn’t it lovely!

We did some sample shooting with our amazing director Scott and expert camera genius Randy.

Christian Rocking Out!

Me doing schoolwork.  Why they thought this was interesting I will never know!

Twirling in a field…

Camera Term of the day:

Two eyes:  A ‘non-profile’ shot.  You always want a full face or both of a person's eyes in a shot.

Schedule Update

From the thick of it…

There has been a change in plans and the date for the shoot has been moved.  The live show filming is now SUNDAY rather than tomorrow (Saturday).  We’re sorry for the short notice, we just found out ourselves.  The reasons for the shoot changes are all good; they liked the work that we did today so much that they are planning to do some more similar filming again tomorrow!  We’ll keep you posted.  We should have some pictures of our latest shoot up soon on the blog!

Again that’s Sunday, April 26^th, at the Central Florida Fairgrounds in Orlando, FL.  The official time is 6 pm but the time is subject to random acts of production far outside our lowly understanding.  Thank you for sticking with us.  The overwhelming responses we’ve received mean the world to us.  We couldn’t do it without all of you!  Hope to see you there on Sunday!

More...:)

The latest on that TV update:  We are in between test shots right now!  Our RV now bears the ShaeLaurel logo on both sides.  The crew is amazing and very talented we can't wait to start filming tomorrow!

TV and our latest adventure!

Okay, so here's the skinny...

We just got a call from A network! We've been talking to them for a while
about doing a Reality TV show on our family and our travels and
they've responded with a resounding yes! This means that we'll be
moving onto the next step: a pilot! We will be spending the next
couple of weeks before our show in New York filming with the amazing
team from Lightship Entertainment to present to MTV in June!
Our first day of filming will take place at the Central Florida Fair
near Orlando on the 25th where we will be putting on a live show. The
show will take place just before dusk so probably about 6 PM in front
of the ferris wheel. The show will not be in any kind of brochure or
announced at the fair so we need your help! We need a screaming crowd
at the shoot so that the network can see what kind of a band we are! If you
are in the area please come down and show your support! Admission is
$8 for the whole fair so we'll be giving out a Free SHINE CD
to every screaming audience member who comes up to us and let's us
know they've read this e-mail. Plus you'll have the chance to be in
the film! Once again it's going to be on the 25th around 6 PM at the
Central Florida Fair in front of the ferris wheel! Thanks for making
this show a reality! Hope to see you all there!

Our new CD Shine has finally arrived! I am writing this on Dad's iPhone so it won't let me post in the text section :) More exciting news to come!

New CD Update...

There was a mistake at the mastering house and our new CD
Shine was not be ready when we had originally planned.  The CD is in a holding pattern right
now while we work things out.  This
will probably mean that the release date will be closer to my birthday, which
means twice the party!  Who doesn’t
want a ShaeLaurel CD for their birthday? 
I’ll be sure to post up the new release date as soon as we find out when
that will be.
