Filming Day 2

        I'm afraid to say that today's filming did not start without some drama. 

        Violette and I had scheduled to continue filming Saturday afternoon (when this is being written). I woke up this morning and checked in on Violette to see if the plan was still on and to ask her to send me the picture of Sienna we were going to be using for the funeral scenes that day so i could print it at Walgreens. She takes a while to respond and when she does she tells me she can't find the heart necklace (our main prop) which we needed for the picture. Naturally, we were freaking out over this because that is basically the most important prop and what our title is even based on, so it would really be inconvenient to lose that. We were just texting back and forth trying to figure out where it could be, worried that it might've been lost when we were recording a few days ago, which would've been the worst case scenario. I agreed to go to her house and help her look and hopefully begin filming. 

        Thankfully, when I got there and started helping her look we found it! Turns out it was in the pocket of the pants Violette was wearing that day. So then we took Sienna's picture and ordered it to be printed at Walgreens and went to pick it up. 

        We got Violette's dad to be our priest! We dressed him up in a dark button up shirt and cut a piece of paper to put in the collar to create the priest's look. He wrapped a cross necklace around his wrist and was holding the bible we purchased. 

        We collected fake flowers that Violette had lying around at home and we found a decorative base that had that perfect urn look. We had originally planned to put our picture in a picture frame, but we accidentally got the picture too big and didn't fit in it. So, we decided to place it on top of a sort of stand where it could lay. 

        After arranging the set up we tried to get as many shots as we could in order to have leeway when editing, but i think it was another very productive filming day.

        Filming is pretty much done. I imagine that we'll most likely be needing more footage or to adjust it at least, but I'm extremely excited to start editing. Seeing the footage come together is the only way we'll be able to tell if it works well. Although editing is a little daunting for me and Violette because we aren't the most experienced, I'm excited to learn and practice.
