Production on the Senior Patio

 

On Tuesday, the 5th of October, I started filming with my group. One of my group members was not there, so we had to send the clips to her for her to approve them. As one of the actors, I took a very important role in starring in the commercial. I played the role of the girl who receives the post-it note from her mom. My character has to show a very happy and entusiastic personality. Violet, one of my other teammates, starred in the commerial as two people. One of the roles was the sad boy that receives the post-it from me. She also played my mother, who wrote the post-it note. I had helped Violet with her hair and costume when switching roles. Violet and I took pride in our roles and tried to play them to the best of our abilities. After many takes, we had finally got some good content. Dara, the final teammate that had been a part of production on day one, had directed most of the commercial. She also filmed all the scenes that were created today. I also helped filming some of the scenes when Dara was not available. During the first round of filming the scenes, we had made them too short which led to our commercial not being long enough. We then refilmed half of the scenes to make it to the required length. Mila could not make it to school today because she was not feeling well. However, she had checked up on the group many times throughout the filming process. She also made sure the clips were at the correct length while Violet, Dara, and I were filming other scenes. Today was a good day to film due to the nice and sunny weather we had.
