back to fillming

The next thing we did was film the scene were Trevor who plays RJ our main charcter is recieving therapy from his therapist played by Jade. This scene is a pivotal moment in the film becuase it is the first time when we see RJ suffering from depression. We have been planning for weeks to ensure that everything went smoothly. As we arrived at the location, we quickly began setting up the equipment and making sure everything was in order. The director,me, began discussing the scene with the actors and giving them direction on how to approach their roles. The scene was filmed in trevors dads office. We thought that it would most reseble a therapists office. One obstavle we faces was remembering our lines. There is a lot of dialouge in this scene. That means there is a lot to remember. This scene is not very long. However it is an uncut back to forth conversation where the characters have to deliever a lot of lines. This was tricky for obvious reasons. Of course the actors did not have to remeber there lines perfectly. But the conversation still needs to seem organic. Lucky becuase the actors were friends this was not much of an issue. I wanted to get as many camera angles as a i can. But this scene consisted of manly over the shoulder shots. Due to it being a prolounged conversation. Over the course of the next week i hope we can film the rest of the movie. Leaving me with time to edit.
