I Think Were Missing Something



 Hey Cambridge welcome back to my blog! Today is the day Alyssa and I begin to film, uh oh one problem, WE DIDN'T HAVE OUR PROPS! Originally Alyssa was supposed to gather the materials for our props, she forgot because it was her dad's birthday. I took a step back to figure out a solution and decided that we should postpone the filming. So on the 5th Alyssa began to prepare the props. That night while I was getting ready for bed a get an unexpected call, it was Alyssa. She called me in a panic talking about how she couldn't find anything to use for the Heart-Shaped cut out. I looked around my house and found a yellow folder. Alyssa told me to open the folder to make it larger. She then told me to trace a huge enough to fit both our faces. Once I drew the perfect heart I cut it out. With this step we killed two birds with one stone. We had the heart cut out for our faces and the full heart where we planned to write the word NO for one of our scenes. I couldn't find a stick so I decided to tape a wooden kitchen spoon to the back. This was to create the illusion on a sign saying no to their love. Once we had that all figured out, it was time to find our boyish clothes. I asked Alyssa to look in her closet because I didn't have anything remotely close to a suit. Unfortunately neither did Alyssa. Alyssa asked her brothers since she has three, but they all said no because they didn't want us to wreck them. This was just a tiny step back because I remember my grandma used to to wear clothes similar to a suit. I walked over to her house and looked through her closet. There I found a long sleeved, navy blue, button up shirt and black, loose jeans. Although this wasn't a blazer or slacks it was close enough, it looks like suit on camera. Since my grandma didn't have much options Alyssa and I decided to switch outfits every scene where they were needed. To play the dad I threw my up in a low bun and put on a hat. To really play the old dad, I used my grandpa's old cane. This really established the type of guy I was playing. Now that all of the props are in order, the filming process starts tomorrow, hold onto your hats cause you're going to be blown away.
