Last night was the very first night of shooting for the movie I'm in. I've done a lot of acting on stage, but never in front of a camera. It was an interesting and educational experience!
I began the night by trying on costume pieces, changing my nails to a bright pink shade, spilling the nail polish in the process onto a costume piece. Yeah, I know I'm a spaz. Afterwards I got to watch a co-star get her special effects make-up applied. That was a really cool process and ended up slightly grossed out by the end. After the sun went down and the sky was finally dark, we began filming. I didn't have many scenes to film, and I only had one line, but I know I'll have some heavy duty filming days soon!
Other than the costume faux pas, I made one of the classic mistakes a newbie could make, I looked into the camera instead of at my co-star. Though I may have had a rough start, I think the night went well, and I can't wait to film more! I just need to keep the pink nail polish away from my costumes!
Hopefully, I'll be able to post more info about the movie soon, but for now feel free to visit my director's blog!
