HONEY, I'M HOME

We finally started filming the kitchen scene on Wednesday. After making a long traffic filled drive down to Kendall to use Ash's aunt's house, we came to discover that none of us were prepared for the Sahara Desert of Death that was this woman's home. It is also a known fact that one should never touch the A/C in a Hispanic home unless you want a sandal (AKA La Chancla) thrown in your face.

Despite this struggle, I believe our filming went very well. Our main character was also looking extra spicy in her costume and 50's up-do. One problem that did arise is that we realized her nose ring was not one that could be easily taken out. Because of this our shots were mostly of the other side of her face.

The props we found also worked very well with the time period we were trying to set this in.

We also threw in a little suspense to clue in the audience about the future events in this scene despite our previous thought of not adding any. We felt that adding foreshadowing and some clues was inevitable and also adds more excitement to the scene. According to Authors Craft, "Foreshadowing adds dramatic tension to a story by building anticipation about what might happen next." We believe this will keep the viewers on the edge of their seats and more immersed in the scene. They will want to pay more attention because they will get the feeling of something fishy happening but won't know exactly what.

We plan to film the garage scene on Sunday. Our Bruja awaits.
