Filming Blog: Pre- Filming Troubles

     
         Everything was going smoothly. We planned on filming on Sunday and editing for the rest of the week. But that Saturday night we had some obstacles to overcome. We were suppose to have three extra people to act in our movie. So I asked some of my friends that are also in media to act in our movie. I gave them the day and they agreed. But the night before when I was confirming plans we faced a roadblock. I was confirming plans when they told me that they couldn't film with us anymore. One of them was working and the other two couldn't find a ride to the filming location. This came as a surprise because we pre-planned everything.
        But their plans changed and their rides fell through. We started to get very worried since we built the whole movie around the fact that we had extra actors. So we had to take a breath and think of a solution to this problem. We decided to ask our friends and see if any of them could film with us. Everyone asked around but because it was so last minute, nobody could film. Our only option left was to work with the people that we had. Of course its not the original vision we had for the film, but when problems appear you have to work them out. So we decided to take the lines from other parts and apply them to our roles. So now we had four actors in the film instead of seven. At the end of it all we made it work and still feel good after filming.
