Filming Forgotten Love Song(Mar.22.2012)
Author: Minhngoc Do (Tina) Sigh. Why does this always happen to me? First it was Wishing Star and then now this. All spring break, we were filming for a short movie called Forgotten Love Song. We were planning to submit that new short to a film contest but now we will just release it as a normal production. Filming went well the first couple of days, we were almost done...we only had one day left to film the rest of the scenes and we will be done but then our main male lead suddenly had something to do on that last filming day so he couldn't make it. Since he told me the night before the shoot, we really couldn't move it to an earlier date. I tried to work out his schedule for this week and next (anytime before the deadline) with Ima's schedule (yes she is the main female lead in this short movie. LOL. But nothing work out....both of them and me...we all have work, school, and other things...separately. Since we couldn't really find a time to film so we had to drop out of the contest. Well at least I thought we would. I'm actually trying my best to make a different short before the deadline which is next week...March 31st. hopefully this will all work out. Anyway, we will try to finish filming the rest of the scenes when we could find a time that fit both of the main casts and then we will just release it as a normal production. Spring break was tedious because of all the filming. I was literally busy every single day of the week. Way to take a break huh? lol but hey its the prize you pay for doing something you really love. The first couple of days of filming was fun. one of the days, we had to wake up so early...to start filming at 8am and try to end it before noon. We actually did pretty well on getting things done on time. We got all of scenes that day done early actually. And then the most tedious day was Thursday. Our location was suddenly unavailable last minute so I literally had to ask everyone I know if they could lend us their house to film. I found one and we film that day from noon to like 8pm. It was alot of scenes and everyone was tired. Ben fell asleep haha and Ima almost broke my friend's poor nephew's toy car. Beside all the frustration to get things done, filming was actually fun. Thanks for all the hard work guys. <3 |
