After sitting around for a couple more hours, we went outside at 635-8 Avenue SW to shoot another scene. In this one I actually got to ride my bike! Woohoo! As the two leads walked towards the camera, I swung in front of them, around a pillar and over to a bike rack. The scene ended with the camera pointing straight at me, which was kinda weird, but I'm sure they'll just edit that out. After that we went back to the staging area to have lunch and wait. Lunch was great, prime rib roast and stuff. Then we waited almost till sunset.
The last scene was back at the same place, this time a driver whips his door open in front of a bike courier. I was not the courier in this scene, that was Andrew. I was across the street with a bunch of other extras playing background.

Overall, I had a great time. It was easy and the crew was really nice. Sometimes it was tedious just waiting around but it was cool to see the film-making in progress, it really gives you an appreciation of all the work and preparation that goes into the process. And I feel sorry for those actors who have to wear that greasy make-up day after day. Icky.

I couldn't find an entry for this movie in IMDB but this is what I gathered from people talking and watching the takes:

• It just started filming today.
  
• Its a small Canadian independant film, with a quirky, dark comic feel to it. Sounds like your typical Canadian film, eh?
  
• The story involves a near-future society where fear is monitored with electronic bracelets and if your fear level goes too high, the police come after you? [I'm a little unsure of what the consequences of that is] There's this chick who has these fears that she somehow projects onto other people, like the elevator plunging to the ground, somebody getting run over etc. There is also this thing where she wants to kill dogs that keep yipping at her.
  
• Not sure who the chick is who plays the lead, but she's a funky young lady with braces and kinda strange voice, I think I've seen her in movies before. We did a scene, then right after, we did another with a girl who looked just like her but with totally different clothes and no braces, so I don't know if it was her or a chick who looks just like her.
  
• Then there was a guy who was the other lead, he was young and really skinny, really hyped about his part in that he was wandering around nervously, reciting his lines aloud. At first I thought he was some wacko that had just wandered onto the set.
  
• Its not X-Men2, dammit.
  
• The director was some guy from Montreal.
  
• There's at least three bike couriers in it!
  

Well that's about it! Back to my mundane, ho-hum life tomorrow!

Boy, these peanuts sure are salty!

Correction: the director [Gary Burns] is from Calgary not Montreal. I guess it was the cameraman that was from Montreal. My bad.
