First days … I don’t know what’s happening with me. Lights are set, scenes are shot, we rehearse the script, take your position and … ACTION!!!! )))_:((((STOP mr.diaconu is slightly pushing me towards the light…I hadn’t been in a good light. Oh my God, I am playing with Mircea Diaconu. I have some elfin that always arrange the locks or pouder the nose a little bit. Tudor is very calm, has a lot of patience and doesn’t give up until he gets what he wants. I’m under the impression that I don’t embrace the whole picture. I don’t know if that’s okay, what am I doing, talking with the top of my lips, why? Maybe it’s just sensation. Hello Gelu. Can u hear me? 1,2 testing the microphone. Maria and her crazy outfits…

Because today was very hot but we were “In bed with Maria”. Last night I had an idea to shoot a scene between the two girls with the camera placed under the bed sheet than over it. I wasn’t necessarily original, others have done it before but I know it was a good idea. I laughed seeing Alex and Pompilica ( the camera mechanic) trying to find good spots in maria’s “nest”. And still it wasn’t enough, there wasn’t enough space, at one moment I felt like chipping away the wall for them to have more room. It’s said that Pinitilie did in the apartment where he filmed Niki Ardelean.

day six, if I am not wrong.
Yesterday I was a little annoyed by the comments from the blog. Today I got home after having drunk half a beer for Alex Sterian (our d.o.p), so I regained the courage to start posting again. I had a good day, tudor said. I had a good day, I would say also. I would have loved it if we hadn’t dropped back (I think radu felt the same), but on the other hand it’s a good thing we didn’t do overtime today. I was, I think, slightly disfigured because of the heat. Sweating in the same room leads to connections far more important than communication. At least 5 people sweating in a synchronized way in a few square meters is a unique, unforgettable experience 

I do have a good feeling. I’ve seen the material from the first 2 days, I have also edited some frames at Multimedia, there are no problems. Everything is okay. Today I have slept a lot and as a bonus I took a walk in the Herastrau Park with our godfather and godmother and their children. They fascinated me, Matei, as well as Maria. I think I would be a great director for children films. A kind of Zizi Bostan reloaded. Maybe when I am old! Saturday we shot the first part of the “earrings” scene. I discovered some of Alex’s toys on the bed and I think I’ll still use them as the film continues. A teddy bear and a flopping rabbit. If we add the flies, the cow from pietrosita, Cecilia’s cat and other animals for the setting, it’s going to be a more “beastly” film.

4our and 4ourty

sunday morning.

I had a long day and not an easy one. Today I went through a difficult moment, I had the feeling that I am that kind of an actor that I normally judge. The kind that waists film and patience. It wasn’t a big deal, a detail, a short scene, but I was under the impression that my lack of concentration concerning my own womanhood determined a kind of emotional block that prevented me to react as tudor wanted. I only wanted it to be finished. At the end everything turned out as he wanted, I hope. Or maybe the change of the reels got him frightened. And me at the same time… at a certain moment I had an inhibition. Guilt and frustration.
