Filming Blog

 On Friday the 30th I started filming. I was going to film on the 29th but the weather was not the right condition for the scenes. As the director I brought all of the costumes and props for filming. For the begging scenes I had to change into my exercise cloths. I made sure to get someone to direct the specific scenes and angles that went with it. The street outside my house was busy so I had to make sure I did the scenes when there was no cars passing. I resumed filming and made sure to re-shoot scenes. The next I angle thee camera at the Zephyrhills bottle. I set up the props behind it as well. I placed the bottle on the edge of the pool. The I put some branches behind it to look tropical. The water bottle scene needed to be reshot as there was lots of glare on the water. I did not use a tripod for half of the scenes. I set up a place where it told me what I needed to do and what to say. some of the areas of filming needed to be cleaned from all the props. I made sure the areas were filming wads held had all the props it needed. The entire process took me about 1 and a half hours. But there is still one scene that still needs to be shot. I need to set up the props for the last scene. I also directed the close ups which I need more practice with.
