Phil

So we started shooting for our Hangover remake. We started with Phil's side of the phone conversation, not gonna lie, but for our first ever shoot, it was awesome. Got some exclusive behind the scenes snapshots, I'll just explain them as I go along.


This was one of our preparations; make-up. I was playing Phil, we were going to use fake blood. Yeh. We forgot it, so we improvised with byro. Went pretty successfully.


Looks like I had been punched in the face. Bill's Dad did suggest we just use method acting ways, I wasn't completely enthusiastic on that. We were trying to get the closest relation to the original shots, we got the costume and make-up pretty close to the original with these shots, we didn't really get the costume as dirty and as worn as the it could have been, but it was the same clothing style that we went for.


We had the script of the intro on the set, I was actually holding while doing the shots, I think  it would have been better if I didn't have it; I would've been able to use my other hand, but we had a casting change at the last moment because of the fact that it was quite windy when we did the shoot. And Bill's hair would have got in a right mess.


Nicole and Evie were behind the scenes checking with Jake, who was the cinematographer, on how the shots were matching up to the originals. They were also giving tips on how to make it look better, and there just to make us look pro.


We were fortunate enough to have Bill's Dad's car along with us, which was a real bonus as it was the same shape and colour as the car they have in the original shot. We were very grateful to Bill's Dad. And we turning a few heads on the edge of Tuttle's Lane.

We have had another day of shooting, unfortunately it wasn't very productive as people didn't show up, and Evie was being held back at work by a very ignorant boss. We are going to have another day of shooting as the daylight ran out on Sunday and so did the camera battery. We have only got the rest of the people shots to get, which shouldn't take too long and we can get on with the editing.
