《My Hollywood System》Chapter 20
Advertisement
Montgomery County Airpark is about thirty miles from Burkittsville town, but their first destination was not the town, rather, a car dealer’s shop.
In the movie, the three protagonists - Heather, Josh and Mike - reach down in a car, a 1987 Dodge Daytona, whose counterpart in this world was a 1989 Chryslus Drift - both of these looked similar and featured pop-up headlights.
By afternoon, they reached their destination - the car dealer’s shop, Will bought a second hand Chryslus Drift and then as they stood beside the car, he began to explain the scene to the three main leads of the money.
“From now on, we'll refer to June as Heather, Marcus will be Josh, and Zach will be Mike. We will use the code word - taco. And when I say taco, I want you to be like the characters; I want all of you to act like them. And if any of you get tired or want to take a break, you all three must say taco, or you will have to stay in character.”
The three of them nodded as Will continued while gesturing at the car beside them.
“The scene we’re shooting right now is not the opening of the movie; rather, it’s what will happen after about two minutes have passed. As for the first two minutes, we will shoot those after we’re done with the rest of the shooting.”
Zach (Mike) slightly raised his hand at that moment to ask a question.
“Yes?” Will focused his attention on him.
“Sorry to interrupt, but… why… are we skipping the first two minutes? Aren’t those the easy parts? I feel like we can get them done tomorrow morning; why wait till the end of the movie?”
Will nodded, “Yes, those are quite probably the easiest shots in the movie, but I want us to shoot the first two minutes of the movie at the end because… well, let’s say, to lighten up the mood. And trust me, you all will thank me for this.”

The other three smiled at this, and Will resumed his instructions.
“You guys have already read the script, and I am giving all of you permission to improvise the dialogues as you like. The more raw your actions are, the better shot we will get. And for this scene, we will start with the car.”
Will then called someone from the crew and asked for a bag. Out of the bags, he first took out the cameras - a CP-16 and a Hi8 Camcorder - and then handed them to Josh and Heather, respectively.
“Josh,” Will spoke to Marcus, calling him in his character’s name, “This is the camera I was talking about earlier. This will be used to film the ‘documentary’ about the witch.”
And then he glanced at June and handed over the Hi8 camcorder to her; he added, “This camera will be used to record the everyday moments of your group. This camcorder will be passed between all of you; we have a few more, but try not to lose them.”
And then he said to the three, “And yeah, take these too.”
Putting his hand in the bag while holding it with the other, Will took out three walkie-talkies.
“You guys will be driving right in front of the bus, and these walkie talkies will be with you, and we will be listening to the chat you guys are having.”
As the other three nodded, Will gave them the last instruction, “Now, get into the car and start working on it. Oh, and remember one thing - from this movement, till the end of the shooting - do not stop shooting. In the car, you will find a few more camcorders.”
“Taco!”
…
The Hi8 camcorder, facing Mike, who was sitting at the backseat of the car, was flipped open by Heather.
“How are you, Mike? It's nice to meet you.”

Heather asked as soon as she opened the camera.
It was late morning, and Mike’s face was half-covered with bright sunlight, and he was having a hard time keeping his eyes open because of the direct sunlight reflecting in them while also replying to Heather, “I'm doing good, and I'm very excited about this. Thank you for the opportunity.”
Heather’s satisfied voice came from behind the camera, “Well, thank you for getting the equipment together.”
The three of them continued to chat and even talk about the number of batteries they had in this car, thanks to the film crew (which, of course, they did not mention and put the reason behind it on Mike).
“Mike, with this much battery power, we could fuel a small road country for a month!” Heather commented in a nonchalant voice.
…
After about half an hour of driving, the team entered a town, and Will instructed the three not to stop for the next scene, which was at a superstore, and told them to continue driving to
….
They continued onward and soon reached Burkittsville town. Will instructed them to stop just outside the town entrance sign board and told them to follow the next scene. As the three prepared, the bus also stopped, and the rest of the crew also got down and began to help Zach and Mike set up the scene. As for June, she was being told instructions by Will, with Jeffrey standing beside him, on how she was supposed to shoot the next scenes.
…
The Hi8 camcorder began to record another important scene, with Josh in the video, and Heather was holding the camcorder.
Josh was sitting on one knee and was filling a film-shot slate with a black marker, whose cap he held between his teeth.
“Here he is, filling out our first slate for our first shot,” Heather spoke as she showed the slate over Josh’s shoulder.

[Date: 𝑅𝑜𝓁𝓁 #𝟣 | Take: 𝟣]
In response, Josh raised his head, and with the sun on his face, he asked with one eye closed, and the corner of his upper lip raised, “Should we all like…”
Putting the cap back on the market, he continued, “Cut our fingers open and bleed on it?”
As Heather chuckled at this, Josh added, “A little bloodletting on the slate?”
Hearing this, Heather nervously laughed while replying, “No, we’ll save that for later.”
“Kiss it!” Josh put the marker back, kissed the slate, and passed it to Heather.
She also kissed it without showing her face in the camcorder.
“It's the first slate!” Josh’s voice was heard as he took the slate.
“First slate. Marked by my lipstick.” Heather replied, and then turning the camera, she showed Mike, who was holding the CP-19 and arranging it; his both hands busy, and a headphone over his head.
“First slate, kiss it!” Josh called out to him while putting the slate near Mike’s mouth, who then, instead of kissing, bites down on the cracker part of the slate.
“Awe, he licked it, god bless him. You're not supposed to eat it; we need that for the rest of the shoot.”
With the camera set, the CP-16 began to roll and record the town sign of Burkittsville, with Heather speaking in the background.

“This is Burkittsville, formerly Blair. It is a small, quiet Maryland town.” Heather said in a professional tone.
“Cut!” Will called out.
The next scene was going to be in a cemetery.
