Filming Day 7

Call time was at 1:30 at Glenwood Cemetary. Why a cemetary? Well, as I said in the video blog for today, you will have to watch the movie to find out. At first we thought that it would be cold and rainy today, but it turned out to be hot and rain free. I volunteered to be an extra in the funeral scene which meant that I had to wear black. It figures that I would have to stand in the hot sun when I am required to black, but soon the lighting guys got us some shade, so it wasn't as hot. All in all the scene went great, we didn't melt (too much) and we moved on to the last scene of the day.

Our final scene of the day was a very quiet scene between two characters sitting outside. Our sound guy, who is amazing by the way, tried very hard to record the voices of our actors. It began to get rather comical; as soon as it got quiet and cameras rolled the most random sounds interrupted us. Planes, trains, cars, birds, people yelling far away, you name it.

We wrapped around 7ish and had an awesome meal prepared by our caterer. I suppose this is the first time I have ever been to a fake funeral. Not many people can say they have done that. Day 7 was a sucess. I am looking forward to tomorrow.
