First Filming Blog

This is our first filming day that we were supposed to film for our movie. But it didn’t happen because of certain time constraints. The time that we could of filmed had to be after school. That was the only way we were going to film this movie. But that couldn’t happen. I had track practice to go to everyday after school and I would get home at 5:30 and since I’m the director and a main they couldn’t have started filming without me. Another thing was that Marckins one of my teammates also stayed after school and he’s the main character as well and had most of the screen time so there was no way we could of filmed. Even if we tried to film after school and after my practice and his we would obviously be extremely drained and tired and the film wouldn’t come out as we pleased. Also the sun would have settled way too son and would of ruin our shot as the lighting would be constantly changing. We are filming our scenes in the day time so it wouldn’t workout. But that’s okay though because we plan on filming another time. This will affect our schedule a lot. We will need to move everything back and really try to be faster on certain parts like editing and or filming. During this week though we did do something to contribute to the film. We gathered the last bit of supplies needed to start filming and we scooped out the general area of our film to make sure we were all set. We all confirmed it with our parents so we don’t have any confusion the real filming day. The issue was the gathering of supplies. We don’t have jobs and don’t have the necessary sponsorship to acquire some supplies so we obviously had to improvise. For my character I have to wear a very specific color And clothes. My character has to be dark and a figure. So I scrambled around my house to find the perfect outfit for this. I got a black jacket and a black beanie that will do wonders at hiding my appearance when doing the film. And here are the pictures of them:
