Production Shoot Day 2

 

On Day 2 of the shoot, I arrived early at the location to ensure everything was in order. I brought the necessary props, including a lamp with the RGB LED light bulb for the scene where Lilith drags the heels out of the frame. I also provided black eyeliner to paint Khadeeja's hand, black nail polish for her nails, and a ski mask for her face.

When Khadeeja and Layla arrived, we began filming immediately. Our first scene was the entryway, where Cynthia puts down her keys, which we captured using a gimbal. Next, we focused on transforming Khadeeja into her character. We painted her hands and attempted to adjust the ski mask to fit her face. However, it was too big and didn't sit well, so we improvised by using Khadeeja's hijab to cover her face, which worked much better. Here is a picture I took while Khadeeja was adjusting the angles. 

With Khadeeja's transformation complete, I started filming the bathroom scenes. We struggled with the worm eyes water tap shot because the sink was too rounded then we anticipated. As for the rest of the shot they went smoothly. After wrapping up the shots, we expressed our gratitude to Maryam for allowing us to film in her house and headed home.
