The most recent filming session between myself, Ariel, and Elena was a bit different than our usual sessions, but ultimately for the better. As has become the typical, one of our actors couldn't make it to film with us. However, this may have been for the best as we didn't have a fully thought-out plan for all of our actors that day. In light of our changes to the script, I helped Ariel come up with a brief shot list the night before filming. I also helped flesh out our new story a little more, helped with the shots Ariel came up with. With this new shot list, when I arrived on the set with Ariel and Elena, I helped explain the new plan for today's filming.

It wasn't enough noise to reasonably be able to tell my neighbors to quiet down, but enough to pick up on the camera's microphone. In response to this, I learned to scatter my filming between the noise and take breaks when it was too loud to film. This made filming much slower than it should ...
