The first day we had planned to film turned out to be not the best day to choose for filming. I had failed to check the weather for the filming day when we had originally scheduled everything. This made a lovely surprise when the day planned for filming came up and it was already pouring rain. Despite the fact that I could not film anything, inside or outside, me and another teammate still got together to plan our next course of action. We went through different ideas. One idea was to wait until next week to film, as the rest of the weekend it was foretasted to rain. This plan was quickly shot down, as it had a high chance of raining next weekend too! After a couple more ideas, we decided on a final plan. We were going to keep the filming plan as scheduled, and extend filming to the day after, so we still had two days to film. We planed to film the next day, rain or shine.
We then talked to our adult supervisors about the new plan, since they needed to drive us to the park. Then we contacted our actor, to make sure they were still available with the new plan. Unfortunately, our actor was only free one of the two rescheduled days. So, we resigned ourselves to only be able to film one day. This was not good, because the longer it took us to film, the less time we would have to edit! If we were using the school provided editing software, this would be fine because we would have class time to edit. But, were using our own program and camera, so we have no way to edit in class! This fact only made me more determined to film the next day. After everything was scheduled, my teammate and I decided to block out the scenes that were inside. We established where the camera would be set up, the movement of the actor, lighting, and more.
