Gettin to the hard stuff

Aaaah! So much stress, between lax and filming I don't know how I am going to keep up. But I know my get go feel for things will help me along the way, act 1 was really hard to film, because we were all new in the business. Things have been getting a lot better, my lines are coming easier to me and my acting companions and I are getting along splendidly; we rehearse lines together sometimes, its fun! Act 3 is coming up tomorrow and we are filming at my house, I hope everyone enjoys it, after this i'm going to spend the rest of the night cleaning to make it look really good. Juliet and I have also been hanging out a lot which helps the chemistry through out the scenes. Scene 5 was just down right awesome to shoot, we all had so much fun doing the dance scene, and things got a little steamy, when the kissing part was afoot! 

Well I'll be off to clean and study my lines! Adios

The filming process begins!

Last friday the filiming began, it was a whole new experience. It was super fun to do it to. Scene 2 Act 1, I had a ton of lines - due to bad lighting and a shakey camera - I look totally dumb but I know my effort is what counts. I'm going to make this short because I have to do a disscusion question - for a FAT grade.
I'll return soon to fill everyone in on the details of being the nurse!

SCRIPT!

I just got my brand new script! The whole 9 yards - it is fantastic, i've just highlighted all my lines and am about to begin memorizing. Mr. Provenzano has been blowing up my cell phone with his excessive twitter feeds - Taylor Swift - where are you? The skype with Iowa was pretty sweet, I got to meet new kids from Van Meter! We havent got everything that under control Iowa...if thats what you were thinking! Going to go memorize some lines!

Costume Notes!

These are the costume notes for the entire project!
Capulets will be sticking to a white color scheme, for innocence and purity.
Montagues will have a red color palet to represent rebellion, young love and lust.
These outfits will cordinate through out the whole film - untill the very end when the colors combind.
The Friar will be wearing both red and white through out the film, to represent the joining of the two families.
After marriage, Juliet will be wearing red, instead of taking the last name, she will adopt the color!
The prince will be wearing royal colors such as purple and blue. Also for Tybalt, a mix of black and white, black representing the evils in him, and white representing the capulet family.
The colors may change depending on the scene.

Today - a new day!

Today during class, we were at the computers. I did nothing but stalk the van meter kids blogs.. It was fun getting to know what they had been working on - even though they had been on spring break these past couple days. I read over my new lines for act 3 scene 3, they are phenomenal; kudos to Victor Flynn, and Amanda S. I'm actually really stoked for the whole script to be ready, because I have to start memorizing soon or  I could mess up! I re-did a couple of things on my blog, trying to improve it, making it better for an obvious better grade. Mr. Provenzano and the director Matt W, are really stressing on how important it is to stay on task, I completely agree...even though I wasn't totally on task today my self...(: Hoping for a productive tomorrow, gooodnight!

Got the Script!

Just got the script today, made some changes. For the most part it was really, really good! I finished reading the play also, making it easier for me to understand my part. Everything has come together beautifully; all the kids are putting in great effort to get the movie/play ready, I changed my name from nurse to Noelle! Progress is key for right now, I'm not really sure when I will get the scripts for the rest of the acts, hope they will be good also. Mr.Provenzano wasn't here today, so I didn't really get to catch up on whats been going on; meeting on next Wed, I'll be going to see the result from just this week. I'm more excited than I was before because I saw everything that everyone had put together while I wasn't there; GREAT JOB EVERYONE! Idaho kids are doing pretty well from what I can see, can't wait until its finished!

The Nurse

Hi my name is Noelle,

In my English class we are currently reading the play Rome and Juliet! My teacher, Mr. Provenzano, came up with a brilliant idea to film it and combined it with a different class from Idaho. I was cast as "The Nurse" which will be Juliet's best friend, because the play is based in a modern day high school. I haven't received the script yet but i'm sure it will be wonderful, I am totally excited for the movie/ play to begin to come together! Basically each kid from the class is playing a part in the play; from an actor to a director, also prop guys and advertisers. I don't really have any idea what the nurse is like yet, but hopefully her name wont be nurse...LOL. I've been trying to prepare by reading the play and looking up the part online so far, I have seem to got the part down by now but only time can tell. This project is going to be completely epic from what everyone is saying, apparently the entire class is going to be famous, joke. But this is pretty big - says Mr. Provenzano. Well I'm psyched!!
