Well, I'll talk a little bit about my movie experince
Well, I'll talk about the last day.
On Friday the 13th everything started off as anyother day. I got up at 7 am, went down town where I changed into my ugly costume (they gave me hideous 'mom jeans' EWWWWW) and makeup, but today they didn't give me really neat makeup (they usually give me all sorts of veins and neat scars), they gave me veins that looked like someone took a ball-point pen to my face. Apparently they were just going to show me from far away, since I already got my close up.
It started off as a extreamly hot day! But all of a sudden, a storm blew through. Knocking tree branches everywhere and throwing pinecones onto set, as well as knocking the power out for 6 hours! While I was waiting for the crew to clear a spot for me (for my second close up!) Benjamin Bratt sat right beside me, this was the third time I got to talk to him! He smiled and said "Your Alex, right? Brad's daughter?" I was so shocked that he remembered who I was! I was star struck or anything, I was just a little shocked. This time we talked a lot longer than the other times, he talked about coming back with his wife to vist the mine and asked about it, since he was told that I use to work for the museum. and then I said "You know, we arn't suppose to be talking." and he looked kind of surprised "Why?" "Well, your a movie star and I'm not suppose to hassle you." and he just shook his head "You arn't, and if you get in trouble I'll take full responsibility. We're all people." After talking a little longer, I had to do my close up. This time a bird was sappose to eat my face, so they gave me these peck marks on the side of my face. It looked real! Everyone was asking it I was okay, and I laughed and scratched my face and said "Yeah, I'm a meth head."
When I had my first close up I had to try not to laugh, they were trying to get "sparkle" in my eyes, and the main director (theres three, and the main one is a good friend of Steven Spielberg) said "Her eyes are too dead." and then someone, one of the light guys laughed and said "She's suppose to be dead." XD
That day we also had a helicopter fly over us for a aerial shot. So, I was laying in the street for four hours XD With breaks inbetween of course. Then, during the third take, some woman, tottaly oblivious to us and the dummies laying on the road (not to mention the helicopter flying over!) biked on to set and through the streets, and even took the time to check her mail box! I looked over to the director and he had his face in his hands XDD
I'll write more about it later ^^
