More Into Filming

     To add onto what I said in my previous blog, we had to make some changes to the scene once we started filming it. While we were filming, we made a few changes from what we had on the script. It was simply change in dialog, as we felt what we originally had just didn't feel right and didn't look the way we wanted it to. It's also what took away most of our time, after taking so long on the makeup like I said before. The scene was originally supposed to have some more dialog, and once we tried filming it a couple of times, it just wasn't feeling right. It was getting a bit frustrating, especially since we barely had any time left before I had to leave. We finally took a second to stop filming and watch over the scene. We starting thinking of what else we could say in the scene that would make it better. After a little while, I suggested that we just say nothing at all. It would make the scene more impactful if we stayed silent, as we were meant to be upset and distraught. Once we agreed on that, Kaitlyn felt the need to say something. So she stuck with just saying something along the lines of "I can't, I just can't" then getting of the couch and storming out of the room. I then  remained silent while watching her walk out. The I simply let my head fall back onto the couch dramatically. With these new changes, we were able to get this shot done in one take. It was so relieving to finally get it done. We were thankfully able to do it in time, as right after we finished my mom had just arrived to pick me up. I quickly retrieved my things and ran outside to the car. I then made my way to the school's aquatic center for my game. It was a little stressful, as I was running a bit late, and I had to take off all the makeup i had on. I don't usually wear makeup, so I didn't really have anything to take it off. So as soon as I got to the pool I ran to the locker room and washed it all of in the sink, careful not to mess up my contacts. I was glad I was able to make it in time for the game.
