On Saturday (2/22), my group mates and I got together to commence the filming process for our opening sequence. We (Lesly, Jazmin, Anyeska and our volunteer, Nick) all planned to meet up at Anyeska’s house around 4PM. Side note: Nick is not apart of our group, however he was nice enough to help us out with our preparations. We all individually arrived at Anyeska’s house, so therefore we were all there by 4:30PM which delayed us a bit. Shortly after we all arrived at Anyeska’s house, we got into Lesly’s car and headed over to Party City to gather our props. We were looking for fake blood, a soccer ball and wax to act as scars and bruises. The way in which we utilized the fake blood and wax will be further discussed in a later blog. When we got to Party City, we looked carefully through each isle for the supplies we needed. When we were unable to find the supplies, we reached out to one of the workers for help. The worker told us that fake blood was out of stock since it is nowhere near Halloween time. Below is a picture of my group mate Lesly and I playing with a few props we saw at Party City. Therefore, we left Party City and drove 11 minutes to Walmart. Surely enough, Walmart also did not have fake blood being that it is out of season. However, we bought a frisbee at Walmart which is a substitute for the soccer ball we initially planned to use. Neither of us had a soccer ball and we were unable to buy one, therefore we found it best to use a frisbee.
On our way back to Anyeska’s house, we stopped at Pizza Hut to pick up pizza for our house scene. When we got back to the house, we all washed our hands and Jazmin, Anyeska and I gathered around the dining table to film the scene where I realized that I left my phone at the Haunted House. We were only able to film two scenes on Saturday being that we failed to acquire all of our necessary props. Filming took around an hour being that we had a lot of bloopers. All in all, Saturday was a day of hunting for props and doing a few practice runs for the actual film which we planned to seriously initiate the very next day, Sunday (2/23).
