All systems go

After squeezing in a couple of caverns of Cave Story+ we held a meeting with our collaborators to go through the final edit of the scripts. Things went really well, everyone was very interested and they seemed quite excited to work on this project, many laughs were had, mainly at the expense of how bad Dan is at pronouncing various multisyllabic words. I even en devoured to make cups of tea for everyone but we ran out of teabags so I had to resort to the good old fashioned teapot and leaves. I did brew a little bit too much however, so I had a cuppa tea to myself, I've never been a tea person, but it wasn't half bad.

The team all shifted down to Dan's house to film our new sketch about a very awkward break-up, complete with drunken bravado from the man in the relationship. Filming went swiftly, I was on camera for the first time in... ever I think and Mark certainly seems to think I did a decent enough job. Many scenes did involve us dragging the limb body of an actor towards a car boot however, and this is where the police came and got involved. In fairness, we came across the nicest and most understanding police officers ever who responded to a call where a neighbor showed concern for the actor who seemed to be getting kidnapped, instead the police were all smiles and we continued while our actor beamed as he perceived it to be a flattering testament to his acting ability.

Just got a text from Mark... after 2 hours of filming in the cold we didn't turn the microphone on.

Bugger!
