Filming Blog: In Boston?

     My group and I have yet to begin filming because two of our members, Zeke and Elijah, are in Boston. They had a debate field trip at Harvard University. They left on February 13 and returned on February 19. This has made it impossible to film because Zeke is the main character in our film. Since they were not in town our group decided to do the majority of our filming this weekend, the 22nd and 23rd. This weekend is ideal because none of us have any tournaments or other activities planned. We plan to utilize both days to film and will be ready to edit when we get back in class the next week. The location, my house and neighborhood, have no restrictions as to when we can film there. The only factor that has an effect on when we film is the time of day and lighting. We want a dusk lighting so our filming will take place in the evening.

     The field trip that my group mates are on has been a huge inconvenience to me and Roscoe. They left on the morning of the 13th, so Roscoe and I had to work with them on the Storyboard through technology. This was very hard because only on person could write on the actual storyboard. Last weekend was a long weekend. It would of been an great time to film if everyone was here. Roscoe and I have overcome this issue by planning our filming weekend very carefully so we are the most efficient we can be. All we ask of Zeke and Elijah is to follow our plan, which they have been reluctant to do in the past. Hopefully they will not have to many adjustments to make to our plan because we have worked hard to make our filming process as easy as possible. Attached is an image of Zeke and Elijah in Boston. We hope that this weekend all of our filming will go smoothly.
