Our second-day filming!! The last I've spoken we had ended the filming day with all major scenes filmed and the only thing being left is the title. We decided to leave adding the title scene during the second day of filming because of time arrangements. We were rushing for some of the scenes to the second day allowed us to redo those with the same lighting and location. With this, we were also given more time to add more details to our story and production.  Being an actor I was given some directing vision in a sense. I was allowed to voice some opinions that I thought would help the film more. From the directions I would walk or what other actors could possibly say to each other. One thing we wanted to add but wasn't sure how at first was foreshadowing. We wanted to add that eerie feeling to enhance the thriller genre. I think the other actor's conversation embodied that perfectly. Another thing I loved I was able to do is improve how I moved within scenes. I spoke a lot w...

Today we finally got the chance to film and it went in a different direction. Mia and I were originally going to get bus passes to be with Kai and Lucia at her house but sadly couldn't. Thankfully our friend Aidan gave us a ride since he lives close to her. After getting to Lucia's house, the two other actors changed into more appropriate clothing for our opening. We briefly planned what we were doing and things to add to our dialogue.  When we walked to the park, Kai filmed many random shots of them walking in case we needed more filler shots to add. When arriving at the park we decided to change the order of some scenes and add what we thought would make the film run smoother. We added the actors using foreshadowing about the stalker and since it rained earlier that day it added an eerie effect. Since we all have different schedules we tried to fit the most filming into today that we could. We only had about 2 hours to film because it is a school night and we couldn't go ...

After further speculation, we've discovered some errors with our planning and filming schedule. The previous schedule did not account for one of our group mates getting a part-time job.With this observation, we’re decided to rethink our plan and crest another schedule more appropriate for us. When taking the job hours into perspective. We reviewed some other plans we may have made on possible filming days and talk about it. We listed out all of our plans for the next few weekends and Me and Lucia are apart of the band and usually we usually have practice everyday. Our practices also run towards 6pm or even 7pm so it may be too late to film.  Meanwhile Kai is in mock trial which meets every other day. Between our activities, homework assignments and social life to judge we decided our plans for filming would have to change. During class we discussed each other our plans for during the week, our work schedule and plans for the weekend.  In class, I suggested us doing it on Thurs...
