A Beach Day

 We began the filming process quite early in order to avoid the problems our team ran into while working on our prior project. This worked to our benefit because today we worked out a significant portion of the film's framework. I'll admit that I started to lose track of the path the film was supposed to go. When I joined the group, everything was made plain. We traveled to the beach for our first day of filming. Unfortunately, this didn't turn out to be the ideal set that we had anticipated. Filming on the beach was challenging due to the strong winds. There were also a lot more individuals than we had anticipated.  The weather and congestion made it very challenging to hear the conversation. We thus looked for a different location for the sequences that were intended to take place at the beach.


Hagan Park, a park close to our school, turned out to be an excellent replacement for the ocean. A neighborhood has a modest volleyball court made of sand. Since we were the only ones utilizing the court, we felt more comfortable filming there. We also had the freedom to shout as loudly as we pleased without disturbing other visitors while playing. We were able to resolve our weather-related problems at the beach by filming there as well.


We concentrated on filming the opening sequence after getting settled in our new filming site. Both at the park and the beach, we took a number of pictures. This is because we haven't made up our minds about some aspects of our project. We will have a lot clearer understanding and be able to discard the stuff we don't need once we get all the film reviewed together. For the time being, I would say that today was a step in the right direction toward finishing the project.
