Arby's Project Update

So we literally just finished filming one of our scenes for the project and it went great. We filmed the scene in which (Jake) the main character played by Erich Westfield is being bullied in school on his birthday. The scene consists of a posse of 5 bullies who all make fun of him about his love for Arby's and the fact that his mom was killed in a drunk driving accident by his father. Kyle Vorbach (DP) did an excellent job filming the scene. He used a lot of great close ups and wide angle shots. He did the entire scene without a tripod in order to add to the atmosphere of the bullying. He wanted it to feel as if you were in a group of people spectating this in a school. We ended up filming in a hallway of the CHS building, where it looked most like a high school. We filmed for about 2 hours and are getting ready to plan our next shooting date, which will probably be early next week.
