Production: a sprinkle of drama

greetings! today, my group and i needed to film our last 3 scenes. It was quick, and we got finished with all of the scenes. the first scene was the date scene that involved aja and i. The group wanted the atmosphere to be like a date, and went outside to my patio that has a small table and chairs. at first, it was too rainy and cloudy to film, but finally we got to see the sun. Once we had this chance we didnt wsnt to waste it so we immediatly went to film. the scene included a cross cut taking turns in between me and aja. At first, we were going to go back and forth between the 2 of us, but then aja had a great idea! her idea was to do all 3 clips from each person at once. After it was done, we made sure everythuing lined up and that we didnt need to refilm anything. As far as props, it was not much, but we had to be creative. for my glass of "wine" i used my creativity to try and make fake white wine. this included lime juice, water and sprite. while not perfect, it looked pretty real and i was happy with the results. the only other prop we used was ajas water glass. For the second scene we wanted to have our main subject's partner pacing around behind them on the couch as they yelled at the subject. but when coming to our filming location, we discovered that the couch against to the wall, and there was also a mirror that sits behind the couch. this meant that if jordyn recorded directly in front of it, she would be in the shot. to fix this problem, Jordyn decided to shoot from an angle from the mirror. When we had both of those two scenes completed, we changed locations and went over to my dads house where we filmed in the living room. It took a few tries for me to get the werding and emotion right, but i got it eventually.
