Tonight at work my thoughts go forward to the 6 months I will have in
 Thai and how best to use them?  I will make or at least attempt to make
 my movie but I also want to find time for my true love still 
photography. I will take both types of gear with me (big loaded down 
bags) and try to work out a schedule where I do a bit of both, each day.
 Some days will be stills dominant others would be video. I am trying to
 do lots here, but it is the way I am, got to make an effort to do the 
most I can, while I can. There will be missed opportunities on both 
sides, when shooting film will miss video moments, when doing stills 
will miss important video moments. Such is life thou, we can only do 
what we can do.
My days might go something like this:
Day 1 - Saying high to everyone at the dump, shoot a bit of hand held BMPCC video and some 35mm film.
Day 2 - Bring all video gear and do a full fledged day of shooting with tripod-monopod, mics, sound recorders. Also take take a 35mm film camera, for some general still shooting. Perhaps use the Leica R lens for both my 35mm and BMPCC gear (I have an BMPCC Metanone Speedbooster for R Leica lens).
Day 3 - Shoot 8x10 portraits in the dump with some grab hand held BMPCC video.
Day 4 - Bring all video gear and do a full fledged day of shooting with tripod-monopod, mics, sound recorders. Also take take a 35mm film camera, for some general still shooting. Perhaps use the Leica R lens for both my 35mm and BMPCC gear (I have an BMPCC Metabones Speedbooster for R Leica lens).
Day 5 - Shoot 35mm film, some audio recording on a boom mic set up (garbage trucks, people singing, general conversation, dogs fighting and barking etc)
It would go on like that a mix of both and everything for 10-14 days or until I got worn out. I might then take a break or go to Bangkok for a short time before returning and doing more video/still work. I would also be doing nightly post work, editing, copying files to hard drives etc.
Anyway just thinking out loud here, trying to figure the bes way to do this thing, the best way to be the most productive and do the best work.
