My only problem with the filming occurring in my bedroom was that my walls are blue and blue is a very masculine-associated color. In my research, I found that blue is actually a feminine color in the mind but, since the 1800s in France, the color has become associated with the male gender. In my first invisionment of the setting the main actress was going to be in, the room had a girly feel to bring to attention that the main character was a female. However, I have thought long and hard about it and I found an explanation for the "boy colors".

In my new explanation for why the room's walls are blue, I have
decided that the charcater who Megan will be playing will not be in her room. Rather, she is laying in her deceased boyfriend's bed, having fallen asleep out of complete devastation and sorrow from the grief she feels. Also, this new approach of thoughts helps to uncover why the letter for her that she hasn't read before is there for her to find. This could also expain why she is having dreams about his death: She is in his bedroom. I am really glad my bedroom walls are blue.
I have decided that this new adaptation to my original idea makes more sense rather than less and will allow my film opening to contain more meaning and layers, as well as make the filming simpler for me. Although it will be weird for everyone to see my bedroom in the final product, it is the best and simplest thing for me to do in order for my film opening to turn out as best as it can be.
Now, sense I have to use my room and actually record in it, I have a lot of organizing to do. Until next time, thank you for reading this far.
