you'll notice the sand glimmering in the fading light
you'll notice the camera isn’t rock solid
you’ll notice the sun has already set
bake, steam, slip, frit
it’s hard to put marks down because they are seen
go ahead now and read scene 41b
shall we shoot oysters in a park on Tuesday?
lighting was “as is” or “oysters” as we like to say
