Week 4: Dress Shopping and Script Writing

     Here's a nice general tip for you guys: if you find something that you like, buy it now.  Right now.  Do not wait a week or more until someone else buys it.
     Mild exaggeration aside, the dress we originally planned on buying is no longer available.  Why did we not get it as soon as we found it? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 
     It's not really that much of a big deal, it just means that we needed to go dress shopping again.  After some discussion on the exact look that we were going for, we settled on a nice sleeveless burgundy dress.

     In other news, we restarted the script since Sil hated it.  She thought that the character she was writing was extremely unlikable and would rather scrap it and start again instead of work with a script that she already despised.  On the bright side, this has led to me having a much more involved role in writing the script than before.  To give a summary, the main character, Anne-Louise, is walking into the diner while talking to her friend, Donna, while looking through the "Flame" app and waiting for her date.  Their dialogue reveals that marriage or long term relationships in general are very uncommon and looked down upon while going out with a bunch of people each for a short time is the norm.  We have a bunch of holograms showing the news stories and the phone is projecting the app and the video call with Donna.  The opening lasts for about 1 minute and a half now when taking the credits and title card into account, so we've got a little left to do.
     I'll be back next time for further updates on our progress.  See you then.
