Today was filming day and we had to make sure we had to complete everything. According to the schedule I was going to be working the audio (sound) in the morning and camera 3 in the afternoon. I was ready for what the day had in store. Early in the morning I did the actors make-up and hair before the shooting. At the end of yesterday’s meeting we discussed certain things that we needed to work on for today so that the day could go smooth. Working on audio was the same as yesterday nothing to complex and very simple so I enjoyed doing it. This was during the morning and in the afternoon I was able to work on camera, which is what I really wanted to do. While I was working on the camera I filmed the main character “Malcolm” and I did wide shots, mid shots and close ups. I had never worked on that type of camera but I enjoyed learning how to work it. At this time I was taking in everything taking directions from director, producer and the floor manager. Today was a long day but we had breakfast and lunch, which was provided by the production team. There were no major problems that we really encountered during the filming. The only thing that we really had trouble with was the boom being in the way of the camera. This tended to be a problem as we worked with trying to get the boom out of the way of the camera and still be able to hear the actors properly. After a long day in the studio we were able to film everything we needed and still look over our tapes and plan to arrange time to come back in the studio to pick up the rest of the set design.
