i LOVE this shot
This entire long weekend that I had we have spent FILMING FILMING FILMING AND FILMING. We reshooted scenes, we re did audio, and we shot and finished up a whole 3 other scenes. ALL IN THE SPAN OF 72 HOURS. I AM STILL EXHAUSTED AND WILL FOREVER BE EXHAUSTED. HERE'S A QUICK LITTLE RUNDOWN BEFORE I DIE
HOO HA: FILMING DAY WHATEVER PART 1 (FRIDAY)
You may remember this little fact from a couple posts ago, but the car shots that we had for Otto and Mable at the beginning of our film were kinddaaa poopoo! Especially Otto's! She was out of focus! And so, to fix this up and make our lives easier while editing, myself, Joaquin, and Isa met up at about 6pm on Friday at the Indian Trace Plaza to reshoot the scene and then move on to Joaquin's house and get some Mable shots for the finale since the time we had with her left was limited and we need to squeeze out as much of it as possible :D! The reshooting of the car scene went pretty quick and we got it in done just in time as the sun was already going down and inviting us to film some of the finale scenes! Here are the brand new car shots compared to the old ones for you folks that haven't seen my editing post yet!

newww mable shot!
By the time we got to Joaquin's house it was like 8PM which meant we had one more hour left to get a lot of Mable shots before she had to boogie at 9PM. That day we focused mainly on the shots after Mable shoots the devil with her TOTALLY NOT NERF GUN THAT EMI JUST PAINTED BLACK
lol i forgot to mention that
i keep thinking we're like not allowed to talk about guns here and stuff but uhh cambridge! I made a nice lil cool gun! :D By only using an old nerf gun owned by my brother, putting a lot of black construction paper over it, taping it all, and then finally completing everything with a nice fresh coat of black paint! It wasn't perfect of course, but it looked real to the point my parents were like "emi BE CAREFUL bro" so it was a success :]! If you're concerned about what my parents said to me, do not worry your little self my lovely flying cupcake monkey! Throughout the entire Mable shoot, we made it very clear to Joaquin's neighborhood that the gun we had out WAS JUST FOR A MOVIE. We yelled it, we danced around, we jumped up and clicked our heels, ANYTHING TO NOT GET INTO TROUBLE!
Then we filmed and got some really sick ass shots :D I cannot thank my bestie westie Isa enough for taking on the role of Mable and mogging the ENTIRE time. This isn't something she normally does, and the amount of care she put into her role surprised both Joaquin and I! Isa, if you're seeing this, you're the GOAT. G-O-A-T. THANK YOU SIGMA
THIS IS SO SICK.
After a couple really cool shots, it was already like 9:20PM so that meant Isa had to book it! She didn't have a car available for her to use that day, so I took her home and eventually got back at about almost 10PM :D Friday was a success! We got some really awesome reshoots and some GREAT finale scenes that will take a while for me to get over.
HOO HA: FILMING DAY WHATEVER WHATEVER (SATURDAY)
We got Mable for this one again to fully complete her night scenes along with reshooting some Issac scenes and redoing some audio for it :D! I don't think I've ever told you guys yet, but the day after I believe filming day 3, I checked and listened to every single piece of audio to ensure nothing was tweaking out but then found out (to my despair) that some audio was MISSING! THE BATTERY FOR MY MICS WENT OUT! DUN DUN DUNNN! I obviously freaked out a little bit over this but knew deep down that it would be okay in the end cause it's just audio and can be fixed easily with enough care and precision :] So with this in mind, Joaquin and Isa came over to my house at about 5PM to reshoot and re do audio for the Issac scene!
I bought out my computer to show Joaquin what I had for the line edit so far and show what shots specifically we needed to reshoot to make the scene even better and eliminate any bad, boring shots. I say the shots that we ended up getting came out pretty awesome! :D I like them 10x better than how they were before. There's more movement, better lighting, and better composition so this was a win in my book! Here are some of the shots I'm talking about:
