Happy Birthday to Matthew Raymond Bailey!
Congratulations to Matt Bailey for making it 22 years into life thus far. I am honored to call him my friend and I was happy to share the moment of his birth last night on our trip home from San Francisco. We left SF at 10PM and arrived home this morning in LA around 6-7AM.
The entire cast and crew did an amazing job and we just got back from a huge portion of principal photography. All of my road trip locations have been filmed and it has been quite the adventure.
The story in the screenplay has started to come true in more ways than one while we have been filming. On our trip up the coast we started to get worried that Chase's car was going to explode due to high oil pressure. On the trip home last night we had the honor of receiving a flat tire due to a nail in Bailey's tire.
Nothing quite says "Happy Birthday" like driving 65 miles per hour in a 1991 Honda Civic Hatchback at 4AM with a spare tire.
Pictures of the extravaganza will be posted soon for everybody's viewing pleasure. Like I mentioned in a previous blog post, this has definitely become an experience of a lifetime. (I'm grateful I'm still alive thus far)

Successful Sunday, and more to come :)
Hello everyone!
This is Melanie Manooki- I play the role of Lindsay. I am the youngest person involved with this project- BUT I'm ok with it because they don't tease me about it much hah. We had a successful day of filming yesterday and even though a few things didn't go as planned, in the end everything worked out. The cast/crew is so much fun, and we all get along really well. This is my first feature film and I'm very grateful to have the role that I have. I'm excited to see the finished product of this movie, as is everyone else. Right now the boys are probably in the desert setting up for filming, and in a couple days I'll be joining them to head towards San Francisco for more filming. It is going to be simply amazing. I really feel like we're all just friends hanging out and not working, but really a lot of great footage is being created right as I type.
So as an update- yesterday we shot some beach scenes in Malibu and a more intimate scene, which I thought was dealt with very professionally. I officially met the actor who plays James (Swen Temmel) and was happy to see everyone else again. All in all, very enjoyable and productive day.
Looking forward to the roadtrip!- <3 Melanie Manooki
(I'm a little out of breath in the video from walking in the sand in my shoes.. I guess I'm a BIT out of shape haha) We're following Ryan here, leading us to the filming spot.
