Second Day of Filming "Single Daddies" (Fri. Jan 28)

So yes, I got the call sheet that morning and it said I had to wear lingerie.  I rushed to Wal-Mart with my sister and we chose a little black camisole that was just below my thighs.  I wasn't going to show any more than that.  I rushed to the set and got there about 15 min late.  But it was ok because they were running late again.  When getting my make up done I made sure she put the lashes I brought on me.  At first she tried to tell me not to wear any false lashes because it was the morning after and blah blah blah, but I kept pushing and when she saw how they looked she loved them and decided I was right (duh!).

My hair came out really nice that day.  I was more specific to what I wanted this time.  What I was freaking out about was showing my legs.  I had not had time to go tanning and I was afraid of how I would look.  We didn't do my scene until after lunch so I had plenty of time to freak out.

Right before my scene the director asked to speak to me alone because he wanted to make sure what I was comfortable with.  They wanted me to kiss that guy in the scene.  I didn't know what to say at first because as an actress I'm going to have to do it eventually and I didn't want that to be a setback or to make them think I was not professional.  The thing is that I had not talked to my boyfriend about that and I can make my own decisions but it's out of respect.  I decided to tell them that I would kiss him on the cheek.  It's not like they are paying me anyway.  They said it was fine.  Also, that scene was to be shot in bed which was another awkward situation.  But it was not that bad.  They let me keep my pants on since I was going to be covered by the sheets anyway.

On the set of the morning after scene

When shooting the scene the guy I was shooting with started to get a little too comfortable (I don't know if that's how it usually is).  He took his shorts off and kept only his boxers which was pointless since he was also covered up.  I only touched him when it was absolutely necessary and followed directions.  Now making out.  We finished fairly quickly.  Then it was time for the scene where I walk down stairs into their conversation.  They also let me keep my pants on which was weird but since there were kids in the house they thought it was the best thing to do. 

This scene got really tricky.  They switched around the order big time.  I was so confused for a while.  Also, we were supposed to shoot this scene in like three parts so I was trying to memorize the first part too but at the last minute they decided that we were going to do the whole thing in one shot.  So I practiced with the other actors for a few minutes.  As we rehearsed suddenly two of the guys got upset because one of them didn't know his lines and was totally unprepared.  It was a shock to me because they looked like they all got along really well but I guess there's going to be drama everywhere.  One of them told on him to the director, the director was pissed and went to get the actor (he was trying to record himself and play it back on his headset during the filing which was a big no no).  They all argued for a while until they came to the agreement that they would allow him to film his part separately.

I felt like crap because I hadn't memorized my scenes my self.  Well, we did it and I messed up a few times forgetting what I was suppose to say but at the last two or three takes we nailed it.  I stayed for a bit longer to meet the kids that arrived in the evening.  I went home and took the much needed rest I needed.
