Today I filmed at the laundromat and I think it came out SO cinematic and really good. We filmed a lot of extra shots so I have so much to choose from, but everything came out like I had in my vision.
When we got there it was packed which wasn’t good because we sometimes had to wait for people to clear the area which would take a while, and then another person would appear. Which was a bit annoying.
Also since in the casino I had to use cash instead of a coin my cash transition wasn’t through the washing machine but instead through an ATM that exchanged our cash for coins. I really hope it works out because I grabbed the wrong SD card so we couldn’t even compare the shots to each other.
So many people were watching me film and laughing so you might see them in the background of my film opening so…keep an eye out for that!!!
To make the pregnant belly we used a bowl but since you could see the ridges we covered it with a towel. It looked a lot better than the picture here.
When we filmed the pregnancy scene I was so embarrassed because there were so many people watching, but it came out so realistic im so excited to start editing. If I do a good job I really think it’ll come out amazing!!
I also changed my outfit a bit. Instead of wearing skinny jeans I wore sweatpants because it was easier to fake the pregnant belly this way. I put a lot of powder on my face to make myself look whiter and I put on really clumpy blue mascara. I’m not sure why I did this but it just felt like her. She also had a really messy bun which brought the outfit together.
Me and my mom had a lot of fun filming since this is how we bond :)
