Progress on Episode 2 and Behind the Scenes Pictures

The Chains of Friendship team has been working hard on filming lots more scenes for Episode 2: Return of the Bully.  So far, this episode looks like it doesn't want to end since it just keeps getting longer!  Return of the Bully might turn out longer than A Friend, Not a Bully.  Either way, this episode has some surprising plot twists that will make it totally exciting.

Here are some behind the scenes pictures we haven't shared yet from our last few drama club meets.

Progress on Episode 2

The Chains of Friendship team has been working on our second episode and we recently filmed a few more scenes.  This time we got a scene outdoors.  We finally had the chance to do an outside scene during daylight hours and....it was raining!  Thanks to a handy umbrella, however, our camera didn't get wet.  We are looking forward to seeing how our outside scenes turn out, and we hope you are, too. 

Here are some more behind the scenes pictures from shooting a few new scenes.

Fun in the Club! By Anaum Allimulla

I never really thought that being in drama club would be so much fun. Apart from learning to work as a team ,  to be patient specially with all the mess ups and noises we all make :-) I get to do this with my friends. we are already filming our second episode. Its turning out quite well and hopefully will be done soon..as it has been easier this time since we are a little more experienced . This has taught me how it really makes you feel when someone is rude and mean to you. It has also taught me about being a good friend and sister. well I'm very eager to see the episode 2 ...aren't you?
Wait and watch.....

Already?

As you may know we are in the making of our second episode of the series. It feels like yesterday we were filming episode one. Time flies when you are having fun. I don't mind because like I said this is something fun and something I don't get to experience every day. The character I play Amina in this episode is more funnier because my cousin is coming back and I get to be sarcastic like I am in real life. I can't wait to be finished with the episode and for people to watch it. You'll enjoy it, maybe even more than first one because the first one was like to start the whole plot and series. Stay tuned and be on the look-out for the next episode. You'll never know when we finish it...end scene!

The Best Part About Acting

         The best part about acting is that you get to do different voices and be different characters. Like in real life I am myself but in the movie I am Ashia and I have a different personality than what I have in real life. I enjoy being Ashia because I get to be in the shoes of a person that is really mean. Like in the first episode, I kept bragging about my phone and making fun of Zeyneb and Khadijah's handwriting. But in real life I am much more kind and not mean like in the movie.
         I really enjoy doing voices in the movie because I get to say different stuff. In every scene I do voices. I sing songs and say things that get people mad. I really don't enjoy doing that but since my character in the movie is like that I guess that I have gotten use to being mean in the movie. I can't wait to finish the 2nd episode.
