Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! We are getting closer and closer to the finish line. Last time you were here , we were preparing to film and gathering some final things together. But , now in this blog I’m going to talk to you about the 1st day of us filming as we finally were able to. So, first off picking a day to film was really hectic and conflicting. This was partially due to my birthday being in February so we were trying to work around that. But, even aside from that, a lot of the dates were just conflicting with our group due to our extracurriculars , family stuff, and etc. But, we finally found a date that worked for all of us. So, since we were filming at Andre’s’ house , we had to figure out how to get there being that none of us have a car. This problem was also hard to all of us living really far from our school and Andre’s’ house in specific was about 30 min away. So being that the school bus would t let all of us on his bus due to overcapacity, we decided to just catch a Uber to his house and split the costs between the 4 of us. So , when I did the production research, I saw that movies tend to film out of order due to conflicts. So , I shared my research with the group and we decided to film probably the hardest scene out of the movie first. This scene would be the car crash scene between our main character and another driver. I had also done research on how to film this specific scene to make the filming run smoothly as possible. So, what we had to do was first get two cars. Andre’s’ parents let us use two of their cars and he set up the camera being that he was one of the directors for the movie. He planted it in the road so we could have the same exact angle & location for the shot. All we did was with me in one car and someone else in another drive to a midsection of two roads and then we would edit in post but it took us a couple tries to get it work, we spent close to an hour on it. Well, guys that’s it for now, I’m out of time, we did film more stuff this day but it looked like it would roll into two days, make sure you come back to hear more about filming!!
