That's a WRAP!!

FILMING DAY #2! Let's go. Yesterday went great, as did tonight!

Breaking it down:

    When Jack and I walked into Lucilles, the manager that we cleared the date with was not there. We were told she left early, which made me panic a bit. Luckily, the other manager there was SO nice. He cleared out an area for us and gave us space to film and even turned the music off for a clear sound in production.

    Jack and I were joined by Gianna for the music scene as well as 3 of our other friends- Mya, Gabbi, and Vicky. They were happy to join us to fulfill the role as onlookers for me and Jack's diner fight.

Vicky, Mya, and Gabbi being customers :)

    Filming went really smoothly. Since this scene of the film is simpler overall, yet more detailed per line, Jack and I got MULTIPLE takes of each line to make sure it's perfect. Jack and I pretty much switched off filming each other until our conversation lines were over and it was time to enter the screaming-match.

Jack filming me! I love this picture.

    As you can see, the set up and lighting are really nice for the diner vibe we are going for, which was just so perfect. Having an actual restaurant to film at is a 5-star game changer. 

Two-take wonder!

    We had one specific bit in this scene that could only be done in one take- the water splash. We practiced multiple times with an empty cup, but now it was time for the real deal. One take only. Here it is-

    Clearly, I missed. I guess if you aim at someones face, you hit their hair. So we had to dry off Jack and wait a bit. Lucky, you can barely tell his shirt and hair is damp because of the dim lightning in the restaurant. May I present to you, the winning clip, in which I aimed at his neck-

And after all of that madness, that's a wrap!!

Im so, so grateful everything went well.
