Well, FINALLY!

 WE DID IT!!! Well- not actually did everything, but the hardest part is over. We have officially filmed EVERYTHING! I feel as though we are very behind with this which worries me, but luckily all of my CCR research and planning had been done during our limbo week where we couldn't get anything done due to our casting issues. So now, let's recap everything we did this week since my last blog post!

On Thursday, we invited over a few extras to do our party scene, and we got a lot of footage done then. The most filming we did was on Saturday, though, since we re-filmed and finished all of the therapist office footage, which is sort of the 'meat' of the film. During all of this, I again was making a ton of social media posts. I'm most excited about the character poster one I had made on Thursday, I feel like it does a great job at promoting the film.

I also worked a lot on finishing the meet the cast posts, and scheduling all of the future posts, so you will be seeing a lot of that in the future! I'm so excited to share more of my work, and all of the troubles me and Mariana had with our casting and filming schedule paid off. Although this wasn't the ideal situation we are still getting it done!

Mariana also did the post card, and I added a bit of extra touches, like a QR code to our social media in the empty spaces that looked a bit awkward on its own.

Again, the bulk of what I did is social media related, but it has been a crazy amount of simultaneous work when it came to filming days. On Saturday it was the hardest, because we filmed one scene where Mariana couldn't film so I had to do that instead of making any social media posts of BTS content, which was slightly annoying since there were some great opportunities there. Then, since all of the filming was done at my house, I also had to help adjust the lighting and set as we went on filming to help portray different locations. Since I had just moved, it was very difficult to locate everything we would need for this film and I was glad to see we could get it done.

Even though everything felt last minute, we got it all done! Now Mariana is handling editing while I continue the long process of making even more social media posts until the project is finished. But for now, that's a wrap!

Ready, and FILM! FILM! FILM!

 Hello! Today was....LONG. Starting off my morning with the SAT was not on my bucket list for a day that I knew was also full of filming, but we do what we have to do! This begins the marathon of me and Mariana's filming, since we are definitely behind. Since my main job is maintaining the social media, I have to make sure to record as much BTS content as possible these next few days!

So today we filmed the scene where Cameron comes home from the party and gets confronted by her mother. Also, maybe I forgot to mention but the gender of Cameron had to be swapped due to our issues with our lead actors dropping, so we had to swap a bit of the casting around. This honestly wasn't a huge deal since the name Cameron isn't heavily associated with any gender, so we didn't have to change much of the script.

Now Mariana is playing Sarah, which sort of helps us out because she had to be present for any of the filming either way, so we don't need to work around even more people's schedules.

While we filmed these parts, I also simultaneously made Instagram posts for every single thing we had done. Today, I made more of the meet the cast posters, and behind the scenes posts, both reels and images. Something I did was take a ton of pictures of the filming process as we went because I noticed a lot of other groups just made some behind the scenes 'dumps' where they got to show a bunch of random photos from the filming process. Again, a big thing for me is keeping our digital presence sort of 'real' and welcoming, so I thought this would be a great addition to our Instagram page! That's all for now, update when we finish filming everything!
