Day 3:
Our first weekend shoot. Ross couldn't make it due to work so we had to find scenes without him in them, very hard to do. So we did the one and only scene he isn't in. The Toilet scene with the guys locked up in the toilet of Toni's Bar, which was actually the toilet in my office. It was boiling in there and there was at least 7 of us at any given moment. A couple of choice moments. Gareth flushing the toilet as he left the stall he had been perched on with the door open all day. Chris's rendition of "I Feel Pretty" and reaching for the toilet paper afterwards and the scramble that was Catriona and Chris's make out scene. We also shot the characters favourite film quote index scenes. I forget them all, Gareth did one from Withnail & I, Pirates of the Caribbean and something else Johnny-ish. Tony did Shrek, and Forrest Gump and some other girly ones. Jennifer was good at her Jerry Maguire (not the quote you'd think though), Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Scream and something else I can't remember. Marc(I mean David, even sang for us. He did Jaws (twice), the spanish ladies song and my fav, "der-der-der-der". As well as Dirty Harry and A Fistful of Dollars.
Day 4: Our bar had fell through and last minute I managed to wangle Buffalo Joes, which was my original choice, a good location, huge bar, a large balcony above it for Jennifer (McCabe), to dance on. So we shot all the scenes in Big Fat Toni Nae Balls' bar. We had Jennifer hanging around all day in leather chaps and a bikini for her dance scene (which I managed not to record) and getting offered jobs by the Managers.
Day 5: The college. We started well with some funny scenes in the classroom then the sound kit messed up again and it was panic stations until it started working again and one of the redheads went, I think the bulb blew and for the first time we had no spare. We moved to the Library where the guy in charge was a tit. We had to stay quiet (hard to do with a page of dialogue). Then we did the "Michael Myers" shot which was giving the film a sinister feel now. Then back upstairs (having let Jen and Catriona go without realising we had a whole other scene to do with them in it.) We started the western scenes (watching Ross dance around 'riding the bull' and shouting yeeha was hilarious).Most of the time was taken up trying to get fishing wire attached to a plastic bag so we could pull it across like tumbleweed. Now we await Day 6 and we look for a night to do the "Sin City Scene" as we have tried and failed 3 times so far?
