How We Spend Our Days Off

First day off we've had from working on our film all month I Love You Because, so went to see someone else's:The Hobbit Battle of Five Armies.

We enjoyed it; what did you think of it? 

I Love You Because Production Day 2

In the play 9 Months, which I Love You Because is based on, there is a lot of talk about birthing videos, and in researching the film, I watched a lot of birthing videos on YouTube, which led to the writing of a scene in the film in which Sean (Travis Johnson) shows Kevin (me) Paddy (Leon Jones) and Ian (Kenny Forthun) his wife Amy's (Frances Rodriguez) birthing video. But, before we could film that scene, we had to film footage for the birthing video, so today, we had Travis and Frances out to our offices to film.


Since the birthing video is only seen on a tv, and will only take up a few seconds of screen time, we knew we would not be filming it in an actual hospital. This is where writing our own films comes in handy, because even at the writing stage, we had it planned out how the scene would be shot, and didn't have to wait until pre-production to figure out how to shoot the scene. We simply designed the scene in the script so that all the dialogue would be filmed in close ups, with the camera held by Travis, with instructions to turn the camera back and forth between their lines so that the camera is on him for his dialogue, and on Frances for her dialogue. Because of this, we were able to get around filming in a hospital, because not enough of the room will be seen in the frame for anyone to be able to tell where the birthing video was filmed. In place of using an hospital room to film the scene, we just waited to paint the bedroom of our apartment set (the original color is white) until after filming the birthing video, and-except for anyone who reads this blog post-no one will know the difference. By doing this, we were not only able to save a lot of time, money and hassle, but were also able to get two sets out of one.
