Production Check 3

While Ali and Shay got the location release on the bowling alley and focused on that scene, I've been thinking about how to make the car scene doable.

Initially, I had an idea that the two cars would pass each other in a heavy traffic situation, but that is impossible to shoot with the experience and equipment we have. I thought of several alternatives that I'm going to pass on to the group.

First, I was thinking we could film in a relatively remote location like we did in Ariel's scene. While this is different than what we initially had in mind, it is also a pretty acceptable alternative and would perhaps even emphasize the closeness between the two friends if we showed their two cars alone on the road.

And to capture Jonah's emotions, we could use shots similar what we used with Ariel and shot from behind Jonah to show his perspective in seeing June drive away, upset. I am not entirely sure what the original plan was to be because it really wasn't practical, but if Ali and Shay are okay, I think that this would also be a great way to capture the essence of the conflict between Jonah and June that would lead to the climax at the bowling alley.

We understand that we have fallen behind schedule due to some of our schedules and the actors' schedules, but we are hoping to get a lot done this weekend and see how our film shapes up.
