Missing piece

Everything was going great in the filming process until we got to the last bit. We weren't sure how to end it. We had to end it in a way that would keep the audience intrigued and make them want to go and watch the movie. We didn't know what to do. Eventually we thought hard about it and we found out what we needed to do. I don't want to give it away but it was a good way to keep the viewer wanting more.

Lights, Camera, Action

Today we began filming our movie and it seems like everything was going great. We all met up at Klaus' house and shot in his garage. Nico did a great job acting as the person who was trapped. We also had tons of fun shooting this. We had to shot from lots of different angles to make sure you could get the right atmosphere. We didn't want people to know that we were in a garage.

Bumps in the filming process

We have had a couple issues on scheduling to film our project. We were planning on filming this weekend up our partner Jose was at the music festival called Ultra. So filming this weekend wasn't going to work out that well. Then I am not available to film Monday because I have to take my mother to the airport. That has taken up a bit of our time but it wont be a big issue. We have a good amount amount of time left and if we work diligently we will get everything done with no problem.

Actors

After searching for different actors to help us with our filming process we have finally found who we will be using. For the person locked up it will be played by our partner Nicolas Yanez. I will be playing the part of the scientist that is the one who has the prisoner locked up. We came to this conclusion because finding other actors will be more difficult then just us being the actors. It is more effective this way.

First day of filming

We have finally come to  a conclusion of what days we are going to film. We have had a tough time finding and coordinating with our partners for what day they are available to film. Finally we came to a conclusion that Tuesday we will be filming at 10 am at our partner Klaus' house. Jose will bring his camera equipment and we will be ready.

Idea

The film we are trying to create is a suspense film that keeps the viewer on edge. We are going to start off with our main actor tied up to a chair in a empty room. There is nothing in the room except for him and a table in front of him with test tubes and tools used for building. The actor somehow gets lose and gets out of the empty chair and walks out of the room into a very bright hallway that seems to be like a laboratory. He sees a bunch of scientists and hides behind a table, he turns around for a second and knocks over a test tube and it shatters. All the scientists look over and it ends.

This is what we are planning on so far but there can be lots of changes along the way.
