Filming blog: Day 1

Hi blog. This weekend, me and my partner started filming. We had prepared the props days before too. We filmed at my house this weekend. So my partner had to ride his bike over to my house, and leave before sundown, so we had around 3 hours to film. With that in mind, we decided to film in 2 different days. We decided this because we could barely fit the whole filming in 3 hours, but basically all the scenes would be rushed and that's not how we want our film to go. We decided to film for the second time on probably this upcoming Friday, the 11th, or the weekend after it. We picked those days because we have midterms this next week, and we need to get this filming done with this weekend. To get back on track, Filming wasn't that hard. We decided to first film in chronological order. The first couple of scenes were fairly easy to film. We then decided to make a game plan because after those scenes we realized that we needed to split the filming into 2 days. We decided that this weekend we would do all the shots that are with my dad, and inside/around my house this weekend. The next weekend would be all of the neighborhood scenes. So when we filmed this weekend, we basically got 2/3rds of the movie done. The only hard part that we had with filming, was with my dad. We just had to wait for him to stop doing yard work to film with him. Other than that it was a breeze. Me and my group mate might even get the foundation of our editing done too this week with the film we have so far.
