We had our first day of filming on Wednesday! Everything went smoothly and we got a lot of the crucial shots we needed. There was a scheduling conflict with Olivia's mom, so we will have to meet another day to film the scenes with her as well. It was kind of apparent that my acting skills weren't the best, and we had to retake scenes a bunch of times because I had an issue with not keeping a straight face. In a lot of the scenes, there was silent or awkward tension that would break me. I was scared that I was annoying my teammates, but they laughed along with me and assured me that it was okay. We had fun and it was ten times easier since we had all of our shots planned out. But, even with a plan, we agreed to go with the flow and do what felt best. This meant redoing shots in different angles and manners so we could go back on it and decide while editing. Olivia was terrific at making sure to keep up continuity in our shots, having us retake scenes in a specific manner so she could clip them together in the end seamlessly. This meant that in the scenes where I was folding a shirt, I had to end up folding it like 20 separate times for different takes!
