Filming The Outside Scenes

    Moving outside overall, was pretty simple. The scenes were very short, so it didn't take much time. The workload in my option lowered as we moved further into filming. The awkward factor, however, rose exponentially. Since the scenes were in essence, traditional scenes, the camera was in a constant state of off and on. We only needed a few seconds worth of footage so we didn't need the camera to be rolling for an extended period of time. That being said, when moving to film the outside the camera began to lose its charge, forcing us to make haste. We had to retake a lot of scenes because of this. Due to how short what we needed was, it was extremely easy for me and Victoria to mess up as well, further derailing the process. With Andrea and Emily directing though, it was easy at times to follow the plans that we had made.
    The most pleasing and equally displeasing part about filming outside was arguably the weather. It wasn't too impeding but it did halt our filming a bit. The weather likes to shift very in the location we chose to film, giving us fluctuating lighting and a bit a drizzling. Lighting wasn't as much of an issue since we were able to wrap up quickly, The rain, however, was overcome by pushing through normally. Since it wasn't heavy we were still able to film. It shouldn't show, or at the very least shouldn't be extremely noticeable in the footage since the camera was kept dry.
    Apart from the difficulties, the weather also gave us the pleasant gift of a double rainbow. We would have filmed it if we were shooting any other movie but it, unfortunately, didn't fit the theme we were aiming for. Nonetheless, we accomplished our goal, in spite of the hiccups.
