Well, let’s just say that the photo shoot for Erdi’s first love scene did not go as smoothly as planned, and Erdi had some things to say about it.
So you spend all that time getting the props in place—what do you mean you didn’t wait around for Makeup to get in here and deal with the hair?
We’re going to have to scrap this entire set?!
There were remarks about sunburn. Erdi was Not Happy.
We told her that that’s why we pay for editing.
Erdi told us that maybe a little choreography or coaching would have gone a looong way. So many things happened that were Not Sexy.
Elbows– not sexy. Weird giant heads– not sexy. Mulling over body parts looks like you’re at some sort of practicuum– is that a tumor? And… Cyrelian? What are you doing?! Because that looks spectacularly creepy.
I said– Really, it’s not that bad, we can just crop some of that down and–
Erdi demanded that we run it by our resident expert.
Who— oh gods.
Yeah. I know. He’s right there. It won’t cost us any time if–
Fine.
Marcus?
That looks like a nay vote to me.
We had to take a break so Erdi could have a little chat about blocking:
There wasn’t a whole lot of argument with the elf; he just wanted to get this done so we’d let him have his clothes back.
And he got a little sulky with us– not everything was his fault!
Sometimes Erdi’s looking pretty awkward, too.
— Ow! that’s not a handle!
Yeah, I agree. We’re not going to be using that.
Now Erdi’s complaining that some of the face shots we got are not the most flattering:
She wants them cut.
Marcus?
Marcus says the lighting could be better.
Cyrelian wants to know why Marcus gets to sit in the shade between takes. Why does he get food? Why does–
I told Cyrelian he could have five minutes, but that’s it. We don’t want to lose the light.
Hey– Marcus? You gonna come back over here and advise?
Marcus?
Just listen to Erdi, Marcus says. It’ll save a lot of time, Marcus says…
… yeah.
