My group and I had our second production day on Monday 2/26/24. We met up at Big Cat Habitat at 4:30, and started to pick up right where we left off. The reason we arrived at 4:30 was to make sure the lighting was the exact same/ similar to how it was on the first day (Thursday 2/22/24). On the second day we had Ella's dad with us, so we were finally able to film the second half of the scenes we needed him for. He cooperated well, and helped us produce great solutions to problems we came across. For example, in the scene where her dad popped out we were having trouble figuring out timing and when we should cut. He offered that we cut right after he jumps out and then cut to a mid-shot of him yelling at us. We tried the idea, and it worked out great! My role in the opening was an actor. I acted as the scared person who broke in and was afraid to do it. As a group we all collectively agreed if a shot was good or if we had to redo it. Some shots we redid about 15 times! At the end of the production, we were all happy and felt proud of the work we accomplished. Our patience was tested during filming. Sometimes when we would mess up, we would get frustrated and annoyed at how many times we had to redo stuff. When we were completely done filming, although it took a lot of patience to get the perfect shot in the end it was exciting to see how our hard work paid off. The shots looked clean and impressive to us. At our class meetings this week we discussed that we had to wear the same shoes, same black hoodie, and same black pants. We had to look the exact same, so it's hard to tell we ever had another day to film. We all were able to pull it off. Also, I worked on my blogs this week and making sure it was updated with all the information of what I have done and what my group has done.
