   We encountered some problems today since me and Brendan weren't working together. I had to pick up my dad from the airport today and it cut some time that I could've used to film. Afterwards my brother and me went to the abandoned prison and we got permission to go in. We recorded as much as we could in the sunlight. We brought the table that we have to use for one of the  scenes. i thought we could put some covers on it and make it look like a bed. But now we came across another problem, when he laid on the table he said that he thought it was going to brake, it wasn't strong enough to hold him up. So now we weren't able to record the parts where he's laying in the bed or when the bed are in the shot, i tried to make it look as original as possible but I wasn't satisfied with the results. Were going to have to redo some more shots tomorrow so we have everything perfectly done and were able to start editing and doing our CCR.

   Today we started to film the beginning of the opening, the female parts. My brothers parts we will do tomorrow and whatever else is missing we will do on sunday. I thought about it and it and since it starts with her waking up she's going to be wearing her clothes that she sleeps with, very comfortable and simple yet she still looks good. We got prisoner clothes for the scenes tomorrow and have everything prepared to go. We want to Valeria's house to start recording. We made a lot of progress ut i wasn't happy with all of the shots we got. I asked Brendan if for saturday we could split p the work so he could redo Valeria's parts and i could start filming my brothers. This way we could still be productive and get most of the scenes done.

This is the storyboard we made. All scenes finalized on hoe the story is going to flow and the cliffhanger that it leaves you with.





   Me and Brendan have picked the title Desire, we thought it sounded a bit romantic but were going to use a font that makes it creepy looking so when people see it they won't get the wrong impression. We finished out storyboard. we realized were bit behind since we had start all over with our project. We've picked my brother and Valeria to play in our film opening. We have to get costumes since my brother will be playing a prisoner. We have to give Valeria a trendy, hipster sort of look. Thats what is in style right now and since she's a popular girl then she should be wearing the most modern clothes.
   We will begin preparing to film this weekend since that is the only free time my brother has since he works. We'll be filming in Valeria's house for her parts since she feels more comfortable and her house has more space to get different types of shots and angles, also, her house has a lot of windows so we will be able to use natural lighting in the film.

   With everything coming together now. Just started building the storyboard and everything, now were looking into the production itself. Were getting permission to go to the abandoned prison nearby to be able to record there. The rest of the scenes will be shot in my house. Ive thought about who should be part of our cast. Ive asked my older brother to play Billy since he has a much older looking face than the kids at our school. He has a full grown beard and is skinny looking, has a very thin face and just looks like a psychopath (he's not). He's a little weirdo and Im not sure of his acting skills. If he doesn't work out I'm gonna ask people from the drama club in school that has an older look. Im still not sure who should play the girl role. Im imagining a Megan Fox type of girl but obviously that way too high of an expectation but one that seems to fit what I have in mind is Brendan's girlfriend, Valeria. All i would have to do is ask her and see if she thinks she's gonna be good for the part and she'll be a able to perform it.
