Filming, Filming, and more Filming.

 I feel as if im coming off one of the most stressful weeks of my life. 
To recap for everyone, Last weekend we filmed friday and saturday at the temple, interviewin the Rabbi and other followers of Judaism. 

Still from what we shot at the Temple

Due to scheduling conflicts, the interview we had with the original church we planned on filming at, we had to come up with a new location and interview subject. I reached out over email to another local church, and they didn't get back to us, so me and Nico showed up to their recpetion office on monday to ask about it in person, but they couldn't really help us.

Tuesday morning, we were saved. Our group decided as one last desperate effort to call the Priest directly through the number listed on the website, and to our surprise he actually answered, and was going to be coming to our school to speak with a club.

It felt like just when we were absolutely cooked, things started taking a turn for the better finally. We got our stuff together, and Zach and I called in late to working a football livestream in order to interview the Priest, and it turned out really well!!

From then we interviewed the other priest on thursday in the church, where we were also able to get some pretty nice shots of the church while empty. This is where the scheduling got a little cluttered. This past weekend we had a week long competition called STN Challenges, the general idea was that all of us would be busy creating a video for the competition. This situation ruled out our Friday evening, and all of Saturday. So sunday morning, after wrapping up filming for the competition, Nico and I went to the morning Mass to record some B-roll, and it ended up turning out pretty well. After this we regrouped with Zach and Aneesa at Panera for the next steps...

I was honestly surprised I was able to make this schedule work, and I feel like this weekend, despite the stress, I was able to create 2 full bodies of work that Im actually really proud of!!
