Hi guys it's me Santi,
So we recently tried to film the opening, and it was actually looking pretty good! (more on that in another post.) But we ran into a small problem. We first filmed the outside footage first, and then we were planing on going inside the gas station and asking for permission to film inside for a short while. You're probably asking "why didn't you call beforehand?"
We thought asking for permission in person would make it more likely for us to actually get the go-ahead to film there, since they can see that we're technically just a bunch of kids who want to do a project. The ladies in the gas station were actually really sweet but they said they couldn't do anything because their manager wasn't working during that time, and they couldn't call her. This left us with two options: record the rest of the opening in another gas station, or try again another day, which would end up splitting filming into two separate days.
We still had a lot to film, so we ended up deciding on doing the indoor shots another day, which would in turn give us more time to film outside, and give us extra shots in case we need more shots for the edit. For the rest of the shots, we're aiming to film around March 9th, which cuts into our post-production time, but most of the post-production (and the film opening) is the outside shots, so we should be fine.
I think.
Until next time, Santi :)
