Next week will officially the week of filming, after I get back from traveling. After a long time of planning, organizing, and prepping, we are so close to filming the comedy short film. I booked the location, the cast is ready, and now it is time to enter director mode. I have been doing a lot of things to get ready for our shoot day at Global Impact Workspace.
Coordinating the Cast & Crew
One of the most important parts of this final week has been making sure everyone is on the same page. My cast consists of five unique characters, each with their own role in the comedic chaos of the film. I have assigned my friends to play the different roles and made sure they set out time to film.
The script is finalized and now the focus has been on translating the script into a shot list. I created a detailed scene-by-scene breakdown that includes:
- Camera angles and movements
- Blocking (where actors stand/move)
- Props needed
- Estimated time per scene
This will help me manage the production better,
Planned-Out Shooting Schedule:
3:30 – 3:45 PM: Arrival, set-up, changing/getting ready
3:45 – 4:15 PM: Receptionist + Ashley scene; Christopher scene
4:15 – 4:45 PM: Waiting room scene with nerdy interviewee
4:45 – 5:30 PM: Interview scenes with Kate
5:30 – 6:00 PM: Final boss reveal scene and wrap-up
This is obviously subject to change, I will only know how this all plays out when I get there.
Here we go!!
