Hey there Cambridge!
On Wednesday, February 18, we commenced with Day 2 of filming. We only needed the janitor for these shots. As you may recall, he is cleaning a warehouse of a furniture franchise. However, we made a big change... since our location for filming was a garage filled with tools for mechanics and car stuff (I am certainly not fluent in vehicles), I figured it made more sense to not fill the cluttered garage with furniture and just keep it how it is. Except now, the janitor cleans a vehicle repair shop/garage. Since my dad has worked with cars for a most of his life, I have visited plenty mechanic and auto repair shops in my lifetime. I have learned that these car garages are usually a building that is quite literally a garage and always messy with random items (mostly tools and materials for cars and other parts that have nothing to do with cars) everywhere. Luckily, the garage at my dad's house fits perfect with this description.
This filming day was pretty easy; it required a few shots of the janitor and lots from the magazine. We first had to move around the clutter in the garage to create an open space for the janitor to sweep. That took around five minutes which I thought would take longer. We lost some time when my actor forgot to wear his work shoes and had to drive back to his house to grab the shoes (20 min). As soon as I got to the part where it is a bunch of extreme close ups on words in the magazine, filming went by a lot faster since I was able to get those shots in one take.
My biggest challenge was, once again, trying to get my actor to stop laughing. Seriously, we had to film the first shot ten or more times. My hand was also super shaky as I filmed the close ups. Standing still like a statue is not that easy.
Watch my whole process in the video below... enjoy!

I am so glad I finally finished filming. Now it is time to edit and make my foley sounds!
Yours Truly,
