Production Check #4

After weeks of pre-production, our group is now ready to begin filming! Solid dates are a bit up in the air at the moment, but we have at least mapped out a general idea according to what our actors have stated would be best for them. We had a minor setback with our lead actress for June, but ended up finding a new one within the span of 30 minutes! Ariel Brown will now be our new June, which is exciting considering she enjoys acting and is eager to play this part. Anyhow, the tentative schedule is that we completed the car scene and the house scene on November 12 and the school scene on one of the days the following week (16th or perhaps the 18th). The other location, the bowling alley,is under the works but will likely be on a weekend as well.

One of the other POSSIBLE locations for Jonah's home (if needbe) is my home. Potential scenes in this location would be a brief scene in which he examines himself in the bathroom mirror. He would be concerned about the quality of his appearance and then leave through the front door, heading out to  the bowling alley.

 

Lastly, my vision for sound has only changed in the slightest. I have decided I would like to use a few original songs by Alex Finn, who will soon be signing a talent release for us. His music is mellow and relaxing, with occasional speed up in tempo. Faster songs can be utilized during the argument scene, while everything else can be used elsewhere. In terms of sound effects, I cannot wait to record & include the sound effects of the car and bowling alley. Without those elements, I think the film would be void of a critical aspect.
