And the Web Spins....

Our group has continued to produce our movie although it is proving to be a bit more difficult than we originally thought. We were faced with a new challenge: we had to find actors outside of the class. We had never been told to find actors outside the classroom and so it was a bit hard trying to find people who would be willing to do it and truly commit to the project.
 
However, we were lucky enough to find some of our friends from the architecture strand that were willing to do it. Maricruz and Wolfgang, our actors, really liked our script and put all their effort in memorizing their lines and embracing the characters.
 
Yet, actually filming the movie was a bit harder because we did not realize how much work it was truly going to take. Although we had a much bigger group, we also had a much bigger movie with a lot of dialogue. We had not done a movie like that in a really long time and so we had to try to find our pace which was a challenging task.
 
In spite of this, we continued on and Jose, Jachelle, and I worked on the shot list. We also edited some of our script because we realized we needed to make some changes to make the story flow better.
 
To me, this proves that bigger groups are beneficial because more minds can then contribute to the project so that better ideas are formed.
