Ambassadors-the shoot goes on....and on!

"The Ambassadors" strikes again!

No, I mean we filmed another day. So there we were at 3:00 in the afternoon, and it was discovered that sound was not being recorded! The first couple takes had been checked and were fine, visually it appeared everything was good, then all came to a crashing halt! At least it was discovered before breaking everything down and carting it all to the lower level for the next scene.  And how very well rehearsed we were by then! No one had to worry about missing a line, but really listening became that much more important.

It seems like a simple thing, but ofttimes, you don't really hear the line being said before yours, you know what is supposed to be said, and you can just go on with the next line regardless. There must be recognition in your face that something was said, you have to hear it as if for the first time, each & every time, & the next time and the next time, we had a lot of those times yesterday!

Thankfully we have a great crew & work well together, because now there will be an additional day to film what was supposed to be the second scene yesterday. The only downside is going to be finding a day that everyone can fit this into their schedules with Christmas around the corner and the 168 Film Project right after that! We know it will all work out just how it's supposed to!

Anyhow, 2 new characters were introduced Maggie & Mimi, aka Roz and Joan, Liz's antagonistic friends. Luckily, in a sense, the day's shooting was messed up, this way we get to work together another day! Have to make lemonade out of lemons! Liz still has a bit of a quick temper, but is really softening & listening to George now, his words are really beginning to hit home, which concerns her girlfriends.

Later today a photo shoot at Steve Ewert Photography and then this evening another class at The Green Room.  Each session has been great & a super reminder of so many things that have been forgotten or glossed over along the way. Long day but a fun one!
