Postponing of Day 1 Filming

Mamma Mia, here we go again
So things did not turn out as planned today as unforeseen transportation issues really threw a wrench into our schedule. Unfortunately I was not able to make it to Shreya's today but even though we were not able to meet in person, I still planned out what I wanted to include in the film opening. I found a bracelet to use as the friendship bracelet. Originally we were going to have our main character throw away the bracelet to show the audience that she is conflicted over whether or not she should move on or try to forget about their relationship. In our group meetings, my group advised me to not throw away the bracelet. They said the audience might get the wrong impression of our main character and they might come away with the message of throwing their friendship away which is not what we want to convey. I explained to them the significance of the bracelet, and while they agreed the bracelet should be included they said instead of having her toss it in the trash bin she should either pick it up and put it down or be wearing the bracelet and take it off before leaving to go to the funeral. I'm really glad we did the group meetings because they really helped me see what I could do better with the project.
