Preparation for the day before filming

     Tomorrow is finally the day we record our film. The group has been looking forward to this for a long time so it's really exciting that we can put all the pieces together tomorrow.

    In order to produce the highest quality film, we needed to plan over some technical elements beforehand. Hayden has to be the person that records because he is the one who knows how to use the camera and the accessory proficiently. He also practiced some shots before the filming day such as shaky cam, close-ups, and mid-shots which is great. He also practiced with the lighting so we don't spend too much time experimenting tomorrow.

    Since Hayden is the one who is recording everything, that leaves Abhiram and me to be the actors. None of us are exceptional actors, but that doesn't really matter since we won't have much dialogue. Honestly, I don't see the acting as much of a setback and I think that it is the easiest portion of tomorrow's work. The problem is that we will probably be laughing a lot.

    We also planned the time of day to film. Since the film takes place at night we are planning on setting everything up at six and filming at 7. This will give us the lighting that we need. We also decided that we need to move some furniture around because we are looking for that mundane minimalistic lifestyle so the audience focuses completely on the film.

    All in all, I am very excited to see how this will turn out tomorrow.
