Finishing up!

The park at which Paty and I were planning to film was closed on Sunday for an 80s tribute concert, so we weren't able to film. Agh!! But alas, we got everyone together and we finished up filming!!!
We re-filmed our first scene and made it shorter to make sure we stay under the two minute mark, and it came out perfectly. There's a shooting range that's very close to where we were filming, and you could hear it on camera, but we had to film. We changed the dialogue in the opening scene to mention the gunshots so that it wasn't just extra sound. The boyfriend is discussing how he's going to miss the park, but not miss the gunshots, which then ties into how he's leaving his girlfriend for college (her motive for killing him and the rest of her friends).
We then had to do the murder scene with the blood splatter/bloody hand on the window, which was super messy.
We lined the car door with clear wrap and paper towels to prevent the fake blood from getting everywhere and staining the car. It worked really well!
We had a few trial runs with getting the right blood splatter, and figured out that the best way would be for Paty to flick blood onto the window, and then drag her hand down. It worked perfectly!
Filming in general went really smoothly! There were a lot of mosquitos eating us alive, but we dealt with it and got it all done.
We filmed everything first, and then did the audio of the murder scene last because it was the easiest and we didn't need any light for it. It all come out perfectly and we're going to edit it all today and are sooo excited to see the final product of our hard work!
