  And that's a wrap, folks! After weeks of planning, filming, and a few unexpected twists along the way, we finally have our horror short film in the can. We couldn't be prouder of what we've accomplished, and we can't wait to share our spooky creation with the world!  From the early brainstorming sessions to the chaotic days on set, this journey has been nothing short of exhilarating. We've poured our hearts and souls into every frame, and we hope that passion shines through in the final product. So stay tuned, because something wicked this way comes - and we can't wait for you to experience it with us.  Now that we finished filming we will begin editing our film. We will both work together to edit this film. We both have different ideas on how to edit this video. So i hope this works out and we both figure something out so that we can edit this film!

    Despite the setback, we refused to let it ruin our spirits. We improvised like pros, coming up with creative workarounds to keep the shoot on track. It's all part of the filmmaking process, right?  We've learned that flexibility and adaptability are key when things don't go according to plan. Instead of dwelling on what went wrong, we focused on finding solutions and pushing forward. And you know what? It made us stronger as filmmakers and as friends.  In the end, the hiccup with the mirror was just a bump in the road on our journey to creating something truly special. We're proud of how we handled the situation, and it's a testament to our passion and dedication to our craft.

    Murphy's Law was in full effect today, folks. Just when we thought everything was going smoothly, we hit a major snag.  Our main prop - a spooky antique mirror  decided to shatter into a million pieces right in the middle of a crucial scene. Talk about a nightmare!  We scrambled to come up with a solution, but it seemed like every idea we had fell flat. With time ticking away and our frustration mounting, it felt like we were facing an insurmountable obstacle.  But then, in a stroke of genius, Riley had an idea that saved the day.  We quickly improvised, rearranging the scene and swapping out the broken mirror for a makeshift replacement. It wasn't ideal, but it got the job done, and the scene turned out even better than we had hoped. It just goes to show that sometimes, the best moments come out of the biggest challenges.

    Okay, so filming isn't all serious business  - we had our fair share of laughs and mishaps today. From tripping over cords to accidentally scaring each other with our own props, it was definitely a day filled with unforgettable moments.  We even had a few unexpected visitors on set - a curious squirrel and a nosy neighbor who wandered into the frame at the most inconvenient times. But hey, it's all part of the fun, right? We embraced the chaos and turned it into comedy gold, capturing every hilarious moment on cameras.  Between takes, we goofed around and shared inside jokes, creating memories that we'll cherish long after the cameras stop rolling. It's moments like these that remind us why we love filmmaking - it's not just about the finished product, but the journey along the way.

    Today was the big day - filming day! We transformed Riley's backyard into a sinister set, complete with fog machines and dim lighting. As soon as we yelled  "action," the adrenaline kicked in, and we dove headfirst into bringing our terrifying tale to life.  There's something magical about seeing your vision come to life on screen, and today was no exception. We worked tirelessly to capture every spine-chilling moment, pushing ourselves to deliver our best performances. With each take, we delved deeper into our characters, tapping into emotions we never knew we had.  Despite the long hours and occasional setbacks, the energy on set was electric. We laughed, we cried, and we screamed until our throats were sore. It was a rollercoaster of emotions, but we wouldn't have it any other way. This is what filmmaking is all about - pouring your heart and soul into every frame.

    We hit up every garage sale and flea market in town today on a mission to find the perfect props for our film. From old dolls to creaky doors, we scoured every corner for items that would add to the eerie atmosphere we're going for. Let's just say, our car is now filled with some seriously spooky stuff!  It was like a treasure hunt as we sifted through piles of forgotten junk in search of hidden gems. We stumbled upon some truly creepy finds that sent chills down our spines - exactly what we were looking for! The thrill of discovering the perfect prop was exhilarating, and we couldn't wait to incorporate them into our film.  F rom dusty old books to flickering candles, each prop added another layer of authenticity to our set. We meticulously arranged them to create a hauntingly beautiful backdrop for our story to unfold. With our props in place, our set is starting to take shape, and we couldn't be happier with how everything is coming together.

 To begin production, My partner and I had started looking for locations to film. We used google maps to do this. We prioritized locations that were spacious and had enough room to film wide shots. 

    Okay, so today was all about getting the look just right for our horror flick. We spent hours rummaging through thrift stores and raiding our own closets for the perfect costumes. Let me tell you, trying on those creepy outfits in front of the mirror gave us major goosebumps!  We wanted our characters to look authentic and unsettling, so we paid close attention to every detail, from the tattered clothing to the ghastly makeup.  It was like stepping into a whole other world as we transformed into our eerie alter egos. We even enlisted the help of some friends to play extras in our film, and they totally nailed their creepy costumes! A s we looked at ourselves in the mirror, we couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. These costumes were more than just clothes - they were an essential part of bringing our story to life. With our outfits sorted, we're one step closer to making our horror masterpiece a reality.
