Oct 15th: aaaaaaAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?!

Over the weekend we had a wonderful opportunity to film and finish filming, and we managed to get through all our footage together.

It was one part good, and two parts "never let these clips see the light of day" and our director insisted on a reshoot. When this will happen nobody is sure (Project Week and Midterm are in the way) but simply put it's going to have to happen since as DP I really have to agree. To be fair, the quality of work did start understandably going down as we started going through the clips taken from 3AM shooting, and got progressively worse, but it was an agreement that a reshoot was in order. We started assembling a few of our clips, too, but Darren is probably going to get the brunt of the work in his own time.

Being reflective helped in this situation, especially finding inventive ways to get over the problems during our actual shoot. Some of them included me not being able to access the script (and thus appropriately storyboard and account for during the shoot) and my parents having to take us and our equipment around town. Mostly in the very early hours of the day, which was pretty awful for everyone. I guess ultimately these problems did help us realize how difficult shooting a film (especially crammed so tightly into a time frame) is, production preparation or no.
