A Lot of Fun

Last night I met with Calyn (THE Drama Director), Jenna and the rest of the Northwoods' drama team to help with some filming for their upcoming drama series. I really had a blast. It's too bad some of the best footage won't make it into the final product. As I was editing it today, it was even funnier than I remembered. I guess I was paying too much attention to filming last night.

Calyn/Jenna - we will have to do one scene over again. When I videoed the "park bench" scene with the green screen, I failed to notice that Christina didn't just have on the long-sleeve white blouse she did in the earlier scenes. It was unbuttoned over another blouse. The problem is that the other blouse (although not truly green) had too much green shading on the video. You know what that means? It means that when I apply the "chroma-key" to eliminate the green background, Christina's torso disappears also. The good news is that it is a very quick scene and only involves Christina and Aaron so we can probably re-shoot it easily (even outside without the green screen).

Anyway, I just had to post about how much fun I had and what a great group of young men and women they all are. BTW, for those there last night, the video clip for this Sunday came out good--you are all naturals.
