They came back for two more days....

[Mira]

Just for a change I looked for really dark stuff, not that difficult considering all the equipment is basic black.



I'm pretty desperately looking for an entry, as you can tell



Now this one I seriously considered: our young film star with a huge black object. Can you imagine the fun he has been having?
The band aid on his forehead is part of the plot, and I desaturated the color around the camera to make the camera look more black.



And this is just hilarious, I had to empty my fridge for it to be filled with chocolate pudding,it's a weird twist in the plot. I shot this with the fridge still covered with light blue transparent liners and a muted refrigerator light. Oh, the sticky note is part of the plot, too.



Tomorrow is the last day. They were disciplined, grateful, appreciative, and based on what they did last week, nothing will be worse for wear and will look exactly like it did before.
It was a mind stretching experience for me, and I'm glad you seemed to like looking at my reports.

1. good job!

All your pictures documenting this event are so different. And, I really like your potential entry. It seems so natural and not contrived. A candid shot with equipment like that is really something.

Sure sounds like a quirky plot.

2. Wonderful and revealing shots documenting this rare experience from your unique

outside but inside perspective.

You might want to consider compiling everything you shared here with your commentary into a single document to send back to the film program. It might help them decenter a bit better when thinking about what they do and the outside impact. And since you have framed it so appreciatively, it would help emphasize the value of doing the logistics and community relations well.

The risk, of course, is that a freshman class assignment in film 101 will be "Do a shoot at Mira's place."

5. Heck no,

they had a big tent they set up, and many tables. Then at 1 pm each day a different caterer brought tons of food.
I was invited, after all many bodies clogged my kitchen as they were shooting, and I then invited the mailman, and a few stray interested neighbors to have some lunch, too.

The chocolate pudding is what the old lady in the movie eats. Exclusively. With her finger, not a spoon. She carries many of them in her big bag purse, i.e. name of the movie: The Bag Lady.
In one scene she hurls chocolate pudding containers, full, at children that mock her.
A good time was had by all bystanders.
