Complications with the schedule
February 15th, at Barnes & Noble, was the first day of filming; we only had 2/4 talents show up, which is extremely inconvenient as all the actors were required to be there. Koran, who plays "Quinton", is a less crucial character in the film, who has only a few shots that focuses on just him; majority shots in this scene requires Koran with the other two missing actors. Due to this setback, we had to create more filming days, where all talents are available. This was very complicated to do as we only have a limited amount of days to finish filming, and February is an extremely busy month for everyone. We all came to the conclusion to have a 2nd day to film the Barnes & Noble scene on the 17th, which was a holiday.

Feb 17th
February 17th was the designated day to continue filming the Barnes & Noble scene. I had the expectation to complete the entire film that day because all talents needed for scene 4 will be present and on time. Unfortunately, I got the unwanted message from Koran stating that his rehearsals for the Emma musical got moved to 4:00, which was our call time. Ultimately we had to film with 3/4 talents, which is better than the 15th, but still caused us to be behind on scheduling. This caused me to figure out another day to finally finish filming scene 4. Because time is so limited we would have to film in March, which was something I was trying my hardest to avoid. As a director, I understand the role I have to take to ensure that everyone will be available because we cannot afford any more schedule changes.
