Production Blog: Last Day of Filming


     Today was our last day of filming. the filming process was actually kind of fun. We were able to get so much done in such a short amount of time. I'm really proud of my group and I. Today we focused on re-filming the car accident scenes. Since the last time we filmed, it started raining. This caused us to have to re-film these scenes today. The car accident scene happens a total of 3 times throughout the short film. Each time it happens something changes. This leads to her finally ending the loop. Since the scene of the aftermath of the car crash required the fake glass and blood we thought it would be best to put that on the scene after we’ve already filmed the beginning of the car scenes. this was so that we wouldn’t have to constantly be changing set with the props. Our actor for April is Vanessa. While filming this scene, we kept laughing. It took a lot of re films to finally get it right. Our group member Dru is actually an actor. While filming, Dru had to give Vanessa a few tips to help with her acting. She gave her some pointers like "visualizing the scene" and "feeling natural". Overall Vanessa did a great job acting. This experience was great. My group members also made filming fun.
