Production Blog - change of plans

 When deciding where to go we had to us had to change plans a bit. We always knew we we're going to do a park, but we decided to change which one. Since while looking online, I found one that was a lot closer than the one we chose previously. It was also a lot less packed so it would be a lot more convenient to film. The park wasn't incredibly popular so there was only an occasional person walking with their dog. Even the park with children since it was a school night there was only one kid with their parent that we just ignored. we also had to choose what time to film, and we decided to change the date to a Friday since it would be most convenient. The hardest part while deciding the day was also having a means of transportation to get home. This is because most of us don't live near each other or near our school, so we had to find another way to get home. I was able to get my mom to pick me up since she conveniently had a day off the day of our filming. The time we also arrived was good since it wasn't as hot as it usually is. Since Florida usually gets constant rain and high heat, we came at the best time possible. The weather the day we filmed was mildly warm and clear blue skies which isn't all the time in Florida. While filming we also had a lot of trees to use as shade. This was helpful since during filming we had to wear all black which made it really hot. I wore shorts since the person I was supposed to be didn't usually wear long pants in his music videos. However, my friends who I filmed with all had to wear black long sleeves, and black long pants which made them very hot. So, staying in the shade was in our best interests. We also had to decide which paths we wanted to film at. There were various paths to pick from, but we chose the one closest to the back. This was to have our best chances of no one getting in the way but also having a good background to film with.
