I thought these types of filming would be the easiest. However, today was very difficult. First, I got in trouble for not replying to the message the other actors and staff were in. All they did was provide me with information about the film, and apparently, they wanted to know if I read it through replying. Today’s film started off negatively, but I did not keep that in mind and walked into the set with positivity. There was another negative hit when the staff and actors were dealing with a child, not desiring to be filmed. I was very, extremely frustrated. The child did not understand how much these opportunities mean to others.
While the little girl was whining about her not wanting to film today, I couldn’t hide my frustration towards her. While others are trying their best and putting their whole soul into filming any second, she just missed, or no, she refused the opportunity. She decided not to film and eventually left. Wow. Just wow. After this incident, it was my turn to film with the electric toothbrush. It was the first time someone filmed me brushing my teeth, so that was a bit embarrassing… Also, I was extremely criticized for my unnatural actions. All I heard today was “wider! Wider!” I had to widen my smile and teeth in order to show myself brushing. Overall, I give this film a 3 out of 5. This was pretty traumatizing. Nevertheless, this type of experience is necessary for me to acknowledge the hardships of acting.
