The River!

Yesterday was the first day of principal photography and it went really well. We got a lot of exteriors and establishing character shots. We were at a farmhouse all day and one of my co-stars saved me from a tick!

Today we started off the morning shooting in a hospital. Layla, my character, went to visit a "sick kid" and that actor had a rough day. He had to cry for like 3 hours straight. Maurice, aka 'Marcus' was running out of tears so he had to drink water to make more, or so he said-

Then there was a "company move" meaning that we switched locations. We ended up in a muddy swamp with an old backhoe. It rained for a little while, but luckily it added to the shots so we covered the camera and continued on.

The roughest part of this whole thing has been 4:30 AM call times. I love the cast and crew though, we are having so much fun. Cassie, the makeup girl is my new buddy! She takes such good care of pampering me!
