Finally Filming

FINALLY!! IT'S BEEN DONE!! Well, sort of, anyways...

I'm pleased to report that the first day of filming went spectacularly!! Literally everything went great! Let's break it down bit by bit, shall we?

First was packing up all the props. Now, I've always thought my car was pretty big, but faced with the task of moving all the props at once, I realized how pitifully small it really is. Like a real life game of Tetris, everything fell together and fit into place (barely). It was a little anxiety-inducing how everything would creak, groan, and shift around during the 20 minute drive to the park, but we survived (Poor Tristan had to snuggle into a little nook among the props to get a ride to the park).

However, once we got to the park and met with Cristi and Blake, we set up the area fairly quickly, with me and Tristan taking out all of the props and arranging them, and Ren setting up the camera and audio stuff (Blake and Cristi had to review their lines so they didn't help unload the props...) But overall everything worked very smoothly, I was surprised and super relieved to see everyone working diligently to produce something great!

Since everything went so well, I don't really have much variety to say about the shooting process. We had a lot of fun, shot out of order to get Blake & Cristi's scenes done ASAP, since they had to be elsewhere, and generally messed around whenever we could afford it. I'm so grateful to be surrounded by such talented and passionate people (the talented part is mostly Ren, who absolutely carried the project with their cinematography)! Enjoy some goofy Behind The Scenes pictures (coming soon to the social media account)
