So I didn't edit last weekend. I wanted to but I was so tired from midterm week that I slept almost the entire weekend. The time that I was awake I didn't worry about editing because other things were on my mind. I was stressed about the holidays coming up and having to visit family because I didn't have a choice. I was stressed about school starting again. I was stressed about getting chores done in the time that I had before I went to my friend's again the following week. Since I needed to finish filming, and we were leaving now Wednesday, I wanted to make sure my room wasn't a mess before I left for two weeks. This didn't count reshoots, unfortunately since I didn't do any editing.
When Sunday night came, I made sure to pack up everything so it would just be a grab and go in the morning. Then I made sure to figure out who would be able to watch my brother while both of his parents were at work. I sorted it out that night and relaxed a bit. I also made sure to deposit my check after work so I would have money in my account when we went out to film and get lunch after.
The next morning I asked my mum if she was going to take me or if I was going to take a Lyft. She said she would take me. I packed my stuff into the car and before I got it, she got into the passenger seat. She was going to let me drive! After I got there, I realised I forgot my camera charger! I texted my mum and asked if she could bring it for me but she said she was already late and that she couldn’t do that.
I used the few hours of charge that the battery still had and shot my scenes. I ended up having to film when the sun was setting because Ben’s bus was delayed and his bike broke. He didn’t get to Pixie’s until 3 and we didn’t film until 4 because we were slacking off. The ending scene was very rushed and only shot a couple of times because the sun was setting and I didn’t want to risk messing the lighting up too much.
It wasn’t until Wednesday that I realised I forgot scenes! I’ll have to get those rushed when I get back because I won’t be getting back until late. Monday night I was able to get a ride back to my house to get my charger, so that wasn’t a problem for Tuesday.
