3, 2, 1 Go!

Yesterday I made sure to wake up early to ensure that I have enough time to prep before Pedro and Jordyn arrived at my house. This included reviewing the script, storyboard, and our production schedule. I make sure that I have all the equipment and resources I need to execute the day's shoot. Once everyone is ready, we made sure everything is set up and ready to go before filming in order to save time. This also gives us a chance to do a final walkthrough and make any necessary adjustments. We worked through each scene we could, making sure to capture everything we need. I got to do Jordyn's makeup... I felt like a professional! We took a well needed break and talked for a little. Pedro tried to throw me in the pool! After a long day of filming, we wrap up and pack up the equipment. We review the footage we've captured throughout the day and make a note of any additional shots or pickups we might need in the near future. We made sure to review the footage, favoriting the best takes. This will make the editing process much quicker. Overall, our day of filming felt long and exhausting, but incredibly rewarding. We had a lot of laughs so it was worth it. With each shoot, I learn something new and grow as a filmmaker, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes me next.

Filming once more

 Today we filmed. We filmed some scenes with Pedro dressed as a crazy homeless man fighting Jordyn, and we got some scenes of Pedro and I making some very important calls. We used Pedro's car because the interior is black and leathery so it looked way cooler. I got to do Pedro's makeup and I made him look dirty and neglected. After that, we went to the park and got our scenes filmed. For some reason, nobody could remember their lines today. I don't know why. It caused us to mess up a lot though. It was also hilarious! I kept laughing while recording. It was so unserious how do you expect me to keep  straight face? We had to refilm so many scenes it was insane. When we got back to my house we just hung out for a bit before it got dark. My brother came home so we ate and played around with him for a while. Jordyn pointed out the fact that we were running out of time so we ran out to film these scenes! I have a few cop friends and I wanted to use their police lights but they w

This is unfortunate...

Things happen. There are always unexpected challenges that arise on set. No matter how much planning and preparation we do, there are certain things that I just can't control. Remember how I had mentioned that my house was undergoing some construction? Well, it kind of affected us big time today.   It was a beautiful day out, and we were ready to go. we were excited to get started. I had just finished getting ready when I realized my dad was still working outside. I tried to ignore it at first, but I realized it wasn't going to end anytime soon. We decided to pause filming. Th e day's shoot was in jeopardy. We took a moment to regroup and assess. It quickly became clear that we needed to figure out a date that we could all film and that wouldn't be interrupted. We overcame our challenges through teamwork and creative problem-solving. Looking back on today, I'm proud of the resilience and determination that our team displayed. Filming can be unpredictable, and unexp
