Filming in the Studio

This morning the film crew that is making a small documentary about the show came in to film us working on our projects. I found this to be a kind of intense experience. For some reason I was nervous about it, even though I was assured by Rose they wouldn't be asking questions. They mentioned that they really just wanted some shots they could blend into a montage. It was a bit of tight squeeze between all the costume students working and the film crew with their equipment. I also wasn't sure what to work. Since it was right after our second fitting I was just adjusting and marking the alterations which didn't seem all that interesting but I did use the machines and the irons and they were able to film all of that. I think it all went well. I don't think this is a usual happening on a live show but I think if I was working on a film they might want to film people working on every part of the show. I also hope it looked like we were all working very hard. I think sometimes the amount of time that goes into the costumes is under-appreciated but I liked that some of what we do has now been caught on film. I'm excited to see the result before the show starts.
