Finished Filming

I FINISHED FILMING LAST NIGHT!!!
I had a lot of fun filming with my actors. We did a couple of different takes for every scene just to ensure I got the right emotion I wanted. Not only that, but Idy and Christian (the actors) were splendid! The real life couple in them definitely came out on video, sort of like Angelina and Brad and Mr and Mrs Smith!
We filmed starting at around 9 pm at Weston Regional Park in our town and ended at about 10:30. While filming the death scene, I had Idy scream, and there was a cop car a few lots down and we had to ensure him we were okay! Filming a shooting scene with a Police officer present... talk about a paradox.
Now that I have finished filming, I can start editing and then my CCR! I'm really looking forward to spending some quality time with my computer over the next few days to make this film the best it can be.
That's all for now!

If they did anything I didn't approve of, we did another take and I gave them some pointers. Most of the shots, with the exception of one, were filmed in landscape rather than portrait mode. Portrait mode gave a little variation, and I was able to play around with the shot in editing. I rotated the clip so it is seen sideways, sort of like a dutch angle to imply the madness and chaos to come later. Editing On the cutting room floor, I got my creative juices flowing. I decided to use a VCR overlay throughout the entire opening to emphasize the homemade footage aspect as well as the early 2000s time frame. The Pauses and Plays and Stops are at different times,...

filming delayed

I just got word from my friend/choreographer that her and her husband can't film tonight because he isn't available. But she said they were definitely free tomorrow night. This might work out better because I will have more time tomorrow night, and the following day i don't have to be in school until 9:30. You have to work!
