Our group met over the weekend a couple of times to revise our script. We have been able to meet so far every week on Fridays and Mondays, which has really helped me out at keeping a schedule. Friday we worked on adding a few more details to certain scenes and we came up with some dialogue. We all felt it would be best to put some dialogue in to not make the movie without or a silent film. Yubu and Rah spent the rest of the weekend tweaking the script and dialogue so that it would sound more natural. On Monday they did a reading of what they had changed. For tomorrow Animah should have formatted the script and highlighted the parts. I staked out a few potential places to shoot our protest scenes downtown and took images (posted on the blog earlier). I also worked on a diagram of my house along with some images so that the group could see where Elizabeth lives.
The readings were slightly familiar to me because I have taken a couple of photography type classes. I went through them to make sure I remembered everything and to made sure I understood it all. I still sometimes get the DOF a little confused no matter how many times I read it, but I think I have a better understanding and I took good notes so I can refer to them if I do get mixed up again. I think that the equipment for the focusing is really neat and I know that it will be useful so that the filmed image looks smooth. I am getting excited about actually starting to shoot! I really hope that all of this planning helps us have a less difficult time when we are out shooting the movie.
