The second film

I was afraid of the second film from the begining till the end unfortunetaly. It was not so fluent as the first film, I had really had hard time with my group. Pavel was not in school, so at the begining I shared my ideas with Marcell and he gave a free hand for actually.When we were thinking on the first film with Julcsi I had an idea to make a film about schizophrenia, but we changed our idea, because it's a hard theme for a SILENT movie.
So, I got the idea that we could make it for the second one, I told to Marcell and he liked the idea very much. I could talk with Pavel at the Video Production lesson on the 10th week, because I hadn't seen him before.I told him what we had agreed on with Marcell and I had already handle the synopsis,so it was obvious that we have to follow the idea about the schizophrenia. We started to think about the movie at the lesson, but Marcell was missing,so we decided to meet on an other day.
As far as I remember the appointment was on Thursday on that week, but Marcell came at the last moment and we had already shared our ideas with Pavel.He told his own idea,then it was my turn and finally we put them together,but still the end was missing.After the appointment we didn't meet, nobody was at school from my group and the deadline of the Script was coming.On Monday,one day before the deadline, again nobody was at school,so I went home and decided to start the script alone.I was writing it the hole night,but I couldn't finish the end,so I asked few hours from Phil on Tuesday to finish it.
And suddenly Pavel came!That was good ,because i didn't have any good idea and we started to think together, and slowly we had figured out the end,then finish the Script.Marcell again arrived at the end,so I asked him to print it and give it to Phil.
We had two weeks left untill the "film festival" and we wanted to shoot on the 12th weekend,I had organized the actress(the same girl from the first film),but on Friday she called me that she cannot come because she had to go to the National Theatre.Pffff.I called Pavel and told him the situation and we agreed on an other day.
Then it was a big mess!!!Nobody had time to meet... I got ill ,Pavel was working,Marcell...I don't know what happened to Marcell...
Because the actress couldn't come, I decided to be an actress since we didn't have other chance to shoot the movie.
Finally we met on Saturday and started to shoot... We went to Marcell's place,because at the begining the main character(me) is preparing in a room for a date.It took 3-4 hours to shoot the first scene,because we had to change things in the room to make it more girlish.Then it was already too late,about 9-10pm. so I had to go... We met again on the next day at 3pm. and started to continue it in a very cosy café near to Marcell's place.We were shooting about 3-4 hours again,that was good that we had two cameras,because it made the hole process easier.Pavel was my partner in the film,the boy who is dating with me,but he didn't learn the script...
We started to improvising,because I could'n say my text/part if my partner doesn't know it.
It was very hard!Marcell was recording with two cameras and I had to focus on my role.I wanted to work behind the camera,not in front of.I couldn't help much in camera shooting,because I had to play unfortunetaly...
Then we went to Andrássy street to shoot when the girl is hurrying for the date and meet with a stranger(who was Marcell).It was dark,but we had finish it at that day,because Tuesday was the deadline of the movie.About 10pm we could record the end next to Moulin Rouge,because there was a mirror where the girl realizes that she is "not alone".
Next day I recorded the narration and gave it to Pavel.
He said at the begining that he could do the editing,I was happy,because i did nearly everything before,the synopsis,the script...
But unfortunetaly he couldn't finish it untill Tuesday and we didn't show it on Wednesday.
I was very nervous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Phil was very kind to us and gave 2 more days, I am hoping that Pavel will finish it.
If not,I want to show my longer version of the first film what I am editing if Phil can accept it.
I don't want to get bad mark because of this,I was working really a lot for this lesson and I LIKED IT!
It would be not fair if i get bad mark.
One of my favourite class! :)
