It finally happened! I am done recording the film opening. I know it was about time, but it is done. Both my CCRs are also done, so I can now solely focus on editing the film opening.
Yesterday I got together with Isabella and Zain who let me borrow the camera once more and we recorded the remaining scenes. We recorded inside the library but made it seem like we were inside a school with the angles and backgrounds I chose for each shot. We continued the story where I left off last time, with Jade walking away and Maia following her. Now she follows her inside and to her class and that is when they realize they are in the same class and are now stuck with each other for the rest of the school year.
We wore the same costumes and did the same makeup and hairstyles we did on the first recording day to keep everything consistent and I think we did a pretty good job with it. This time we got more footage than what I thought we needed just in case and I made us re-do each scene at least 4 times to have enough to choose from when I get to editing.
This recording day was probably one of the most stressful parts of this project not because filming was stressful but because planning for the extra recording day having so many inconveniences and not finding time to record until yesterday had me stressed out for the last two weeks. I am someone who likes to have everything done ahead of time and I can finally get everything finalized soon so that takes a huge weight off my chest. It is also a relief that I have everything that was previously recorded fully edited so the only thing that is missing is the new part.
Here are some pictures I took when we started recording:
