Saturday we started shooting around 4 PM on the sound stage. We shot a scene in Tyler's bedroom that we didn't have time to shoot earlier. Because of child labor laws, Tanner (Tyler) was unable to film a couple shots. Since I'm the resident stand-in, they had me come in and lay on the bed so Bailee would have someone to look at while we filmed. So when you go to the theaters and see the scene where Samantha comes through the window in the morning, I'm actually the one sitting in bed that she's looking at. I also stood in for the next shot with both Robyn and Bailee and actually recited lines, but Tanner was able to come back after our first take and replace me. It was really exciting being in the scene for a real take.
After that we moved the company over to Finnegan's Bar & Grill in the park for the bar scenes with Brady. It took a while to get set up outside but we had a second camera to work with and so we moved a lot faster once we got going. We moved into the bar around midnight and shot until 4 AM. The highlight of the night was a scene where Brady is drunk and stumbles out of the bar. Jeff was given permission to ad lib his farewell to Jack the bartender and came up with some really funny lines, my favorite being "Jimmy Buffet called, he wants his shirt back" (Tom, the actor playing Jack, was wearing a bright floral shirt).
Tomorrow we start filming on location in Winter Garden. Most of the shots will be outside but we will be shooting a couple scenes in a local church.
