My 2 seconds part 5


Second scene adventure

Me and Jason headed out on our road trip to New Jersey. I let Jason drive around Baltimore. We hit it around rush hour. Traffic was going over 90 mph! Jason was doing good at keeping up. I was shocked that my van could go 90!

We got to the motel. Checked in with Ron and Monique. We made plans for all of us to drive to the set, then Jason and Monique were going to do some site seeing.

We were dropped off at a industrial parking lot. Then we were being bussed to the set. On the drive over I sat next to a gentleman who saw the tag on my bag that had my address on it. He said "you're from Ohio?" I told him I was. He said " see that white picket fence? That's my back yard." I introduced him to Ron and told him he was here from Canada.

We got to the Paulboro High School. We proceeded into the gymnasium which was being used as our holding area. On the way into the gym I saw Steven Root getting some breakfast at the craft services truck.

We did the wardrobe check again. They had some tents set up in the gym for changing rooms. There is a picture of the crowd over HERE.

We were taken to the auditorium of the school. We were the crowd that was attending the school production in the movie. Me and Ron were put in the balcony. Picture from the stage HERE.

Kevin came out and gave us our direction. He told us we were the crowd at an elementary school production. He introduced the actors to us. George Carlin, Liv Tyler, Steven Root, Mike Starr, Ben Affleck, Racquel Castro, and Betty Aberlin were all going to be in the scene.Each actor had his or her own "stand in" that would stand where the real actors would for the cameras to get set up.

Kevin asked if there were any questions. He said "what's a nubian?" to which the crowd laughed. That was a line from Chasing Amy. One guy yelled "can we look affeck in the eyes?". Kevins answer " no, never". Which brought on laughter.

To be continued....
