Filming Blog: The Initiation

As I mentioned in my previous blog, my group members and I plan to begin filming on Thursday, February 27. The scenes that will be filmed are all of the ones that involve the beach, and a few of the house scenes. However, since we are running short on time, we tried to see if we could arrange a time to film today. The filming would’ve taken place at Lauren’s house. All of the scenes that involved only the character Autumn would’ve been shot. We planned to do this after school from about 5:00 or 5:30 to no later than 8:00 at night. Unfortunately, something came up with one of my group members, Aaliyah, who also happens to be playing Autumn. She could no longer get a ride to Lauren’s house. As a result, we could no longer film on this day. Though, the day did not go wasted.

Another group member, Anishkaneel, already made it to Lauren’s house when she found out that we could no longer film. Upon hearing this news, Lauren and Anishkaneel took the initiative to show a video as to how our scenes would look in the house. They took videos off of Lauren’s phone to show Aaliyah and I how they we visioning the house scenes. After recording all of the videos, they sent them to Aaliyah and I and awaited our feedback. We both loved the videos and how it would look in her house. In response, I personally said that we should include more different shots in our scenes, and everyone agreed. Throughout the rest of the time, we discussed what date we were available to film. We all agreed that Thursday and Saturday would be the best days. More specifically, after school on Thursday and early Saturday morning. During these days all of the actors will be available so that we can shoot all of the scenes.
