Filming Blog: Last Few Days

Since we have almost finished filming we only had a few tasks left to do. Like we thought, we still have to continue filming because there was minor complications. For example, it started raining so we have to switch up some scenes. It becomes difficult when there are multiple characters in our film. My group mate and I have to choose days where everyone is available to record. It is also a challenge because each of our friends who help us film live all around the city of Fort Lauderdale. This day my group mate was able to get the car since he had his license. It took us a while to pick up all our actors, so by the time we got there it was around 3:30. During this time in Florida night time comes sooner than other seasons. At 5:45 it was already starting to get dark so we had to finish as much as we had possible. My group mate and I spent a while trying to teach the actors on what to do and say. Soon enough our friends understood it. We recorded a lot of footage to be sure of what we should and we will include. If there is any videos with loud background or people we can always use the other scenes we recorded as backup. My group mate and I work together well when it comes to the filming process. We will continue to work together and get off ideas from each other when we start the editing portion as well. We still have another day to film so we will gather up the actors again and continue on Saturday. Since we learned from our mistakes, we will start the filming process earlier so we don’t run out of time. We also thought of a plan: instead of picking each actor/friend up we agreed to all meet at a certain location to make it easier for us. Hopefully there is no complications when we record on Saturday.
