During our shoot day, we decided to change one of our scenes on the spot! Originally, we had planned for Halley to simply connect her phone to the car after hearing just 1 radio channel mention the planet, but we had a better idea while filming. Instead, we now have her flipping through several radio channels, all of them covering the rogue planet and its upcoming impact, which makes her increasingly annoyed until she finally clicks the radio off completely.
This new version is much longer than what we initially planned but it works a lot better for showing her character's frustration with the whole situation. We even got some extra takes of her reacting to static and different voices, so we have plenty of options for the edit. Sometimes the best ideas happen right on set! The only downside was that we spent so much time on this scene that we ended up rushing through the outdoor shots and filming later than planned (making our shots appear to be during the nightime), but I think the trade-off was worth it.Thats all from me for now, Im very glad that we were struck with this divine inspiration, stay tuned for my next post about the line edit :)
