YAY

After practice this morning, I came straight home and got ready to go film my first CCR. I made sure Vicky was up and getting ready too. 

BIG SURPRISE: Vicky wore a very short wig, like a blonde bob cut 

The setup was absolutely PERFECT. We moved some things around, like the two comfy chairs, we put a table in between with a plant and two mugs. Well, in that picture the mugs aren't there but it was in the final. We used the TV and screen shared a picture of a nice, settling background to set the mood.. or whatever it is real hosts do. I also came up with the idea on the spot to use the TV as an engaging role, for example, when I talked about specific scenes it was shown on the screen, which kept the conversation flowing. It looked like this: 

I thought this was a cool and fun way to show media, to add live pictures, rather than just talking the whole time. It's a way the audience were also able to visually see what we were talking about exactly. 

This was the full setup:

We had to re-record so many parts over and over again because we couldn't stop laughing throughout the recordings. Vicky was stress drinking and finished two full Coke cans which was hilarious.

We printed two separate copies of the script and placed it on a chair in front of us that we can read off of. I purposely made the text at a large size so it wouldn't be too difficult to read. But me, being the super blind person I am, couldn't barely read off of it so I stuttered several times, causing us to delete and record again. 

Towards the end of the 'show,' we made Vicky her own personal logo, which was shown at the end of the actual recording. 

She sort of looked like Ellen DeGeneres which was really funny.. her accent made it even better. After my practice today, which is until 6:30, I'm planning on going to the dollar store or something to get a small poster and all the things I need to create my board for the second CCR. Hopefully I can complete that tonight. The only I really have left to do for my host show is to just edit. I need to layer sound effects, such as audience clapping and relative things like that. 

As I was reviewing the script before we recorded, I noticed that I was missing a question that we had to incorporate. I checked my other script for the Autocomplete Interview and noticed it wasn't there either, so instead of adding another paragraph/part to the CCR, I will add that question to the second CCR. Oh yea, the question is about software, technology, and all that confusing stuffs.  

For costumes, I wore a green flannel and jeans, something simple and not too extravagant. As for Vicky, she wore a plain white t-shirt and a tuxedo, coming off as elegant and professional. and can't forget the WIG!

here are some BLOOOPERSSS
