No editing just Filming day 2


Still absolutely no editing progress so I'm going to recount the events of our second filming day. 

Second Filming Day

The weeks leading up to the filming day, I remind everyone going in the group chat we made with the details: the time, location, who's bringing what, the duration of the shoot, etc. However, everyone in the cast, as well as our makeup artist, had some sort of obstacle and we had to continuously reschedule. A day before the ONE DAY we have absolutely no complications, Daniel Catarino, Florence's actor, tells us he has work that day. My other group member even wanted to cut the second scene entirely, but I persisted. 

    We came to an agreement where we would film about an hour earlier than our original time. The lighting we were going to fix during post production.

    The day of the film shooting, Daniel Schmidt tells us Elizabeth, our makeup artist, is grounded. Now, I'm not rescheduling this again. I go straight to YouTube to find out how to BS my way into drawing bruises with eyeshadow. Only to find out that Elizabeth can make it, and is only prohibited from using her phone. Would've been useful to know. At least the makeup process will go faster if both of us prepare it.

    We all arrive at the location at 5:30. I realize I forgot the crutches. And we come up with the idea that the crutches broke when Florence was getting beat up. The Keyboardist uses the keyboard stand as a makeshift crutch.

Catarino's finished look.

    Unfortunately, I don't have any photos of Elizabeth and I both working on the makeup, but just trust me. After finishing up the bruise makeup on Bassist and Frontman, we start filming. I was the one filming the footage on this day, and it is actually my first time actually shooting a film. The shots were simple enough for me to make them look good. My favorite shot is probably the close up of The Frontman's eyes. I never included a scene like that in the storyboard, but I am really glad that we recorded one anyway, as I am very content with it.

Thank you Elizabeth for taking photos

    Aside from being rushed, our second filming day was smooth. Catarino ended up going to work looking like he got jumped though.
