Dear fans of The Twilight Saga,
I want to congratulate you for reaching over 6 million fans on The
Twilight Saga Facebook page.
It's hard to fathom that it was just over one year ago that I started
constructing this third and epic adventure which takes place in the town
of Forks.
I want to share a story about one of our days of shooting with you.
It was a Friday night and the rain was relentless. We were at La Push to
shoot the tribe's histories, a great speech by Billy Black. We had
Taylor and Kristen and the whole wolf pack around a campfire as the
heavens let loose on us.
Gil Birmingham was in fine form as the rain hammered down on us all, we
adjusted our lights so that the rain vanished into the black of night.
We constructed a tent over the scene to keep everyone dry as we worked,
every 15 minutes or so we would have to tip it to stop the collecting
rain from splitting the fabric.
For some reason still unknown, around 3am, the wolf pack stood exactly
in the way of several gallons of rainwater as it was being cleared.
Being the wolf pack, they just laughed it off as they stood there soaked
to the bone.
We worked through the mud and the rain all night, until we had the scene
perfected.
As we left, dawn was now cracking and in the dim light I passed a small
army of fans who had braved the weather for the entire night, still
standing there, holding drenched flowers and waiting to get a glimpse of
our actors.
So, to those of you who stood behind our security, who waited in line at
theatres overnight, to those of you who just love these stories, The
Twilight Saga: Eclipse is a love letter to you.
Each day I felt the weight of your favourite scenes, your favourite
lines, your dreams and your imagination.
It has been an unforgettable journey, and now as I finalise the last
prints to ready the film for your local theaters, I cannot wait for you
to see it.
Sincerest Regards,
DAVID SLADE
