Filming Day hehe

 Day two of filming had a lot more complications. Me and my group were missing a teammate so was we only had three of us to help on the commercial. There was only one scene to film in the commercial that we had to finish that day. So that relieved a lot of the stress of having to fill multiple scenes. That still doesn’t mean it wasn’t a long day of filming. So I walked down to our second filming location which was the softball court. The softball court was going to be The Arizona desert because of the orange sand it had. When I got down to the softball court me and my teammates decided to put down all our stuff in a little building right next to the field. Then it was time for me and my group to decide where we were going to start filming in the field. I decided to pitch the idea of a filming next to one of the white markers so that I could lay on it so I could get the best shot of me grabbing a drink. Which ended up not happening due to the wind and blowing the direction that we were filming at. So then I helped set up the props to another direction so that the wind couldn’t knock our props over. 

After that it was figuring out how I was going to position myself so that my shadow wouldn’t get into the frame. I also had to figure out how I was not going to get myself dirty. So I ended up placing a piece of leftover cardboard on the ground so I wouldn’t get my clothes dirty. Then it was time for me to lay on the ground. So during filming my arm was above the ground so that it looks like I was never touching the floor and came in from the side. I had to do that many times because me and my teammates were having problems with the background looking too out of place during each shot.  Until we finally got the perfect scene. Which wrapped up filming.
