Producing this film-opening and the CCR's were both their own little different experiences. The intensity of editing a cool, funny, and informative CCR feels kind of similar to the intensity of setting up dates and getting everyone together to film for the film opening. The biggest moment in the process of finishing this project was definitely when I finished the script, which meant the opening was ready to film. Then definitely when we set filming dates with the final actors and a super talented behind-the-cameras team. Of course, filming day was amazing.
Changes to the film's opening were minimal. The biggest one was the genre focus, of course changing the actress for Luz, and the dialogue for Luz. This film-opening was supposed to be more Musical but ended up establishing the romantic drama side more. The urgent change of actress for Luz was a huge moment in this project, as it was probably one of the most stressful moments, but thankfully Martina pulled through and she gave an amazing performance that checked every box for the character. The change in dialogue was more customary. After revising it with my cinematographer Beatriz and my friend Mafe (who offered her house for the shots where Luz walks out of the house) I decided to change and simplify Luz's dialogue so it could appeal more to the target audience.
