EDIT: THE FANFILM IS OUT ::youtu.be/briDx1KgtIk::

Was going to write this up weeks ago, but never got around to it ;___; Warning that this is very picture heavy!

As you all probably already know from my photo updates, Kurai-Hisaki, Bonkersjune16, vickybunnyangel, k-e-l-s and I participated in making a fan-made Madoka short film over the course of several weeks in August. Coordinating it was pretty hard since the girls and Trevor (person shooting the film) had different schedules to work around. We also had to get together beforehand to choreograph and practice the battle scenes. In fact, Kitsurie and I practiced our battle scenes during the night on the ConBravo weekend since its hard for us to meet up (Sleep is for the weeaaaakkk! _{but I AM weak...''OTL} ). Jelly and Vicky practiced on their own beforehand and then pieced it together on the day of their shoot. And Hisaki...well, she practiced her running

We shot at several different locations, first off is an abandoned building where Homura and Mami have their gunfight. We also shot the ending scene on the rooftop

Freaky looking right? Plus it was raining when we snuck inside, and there was puddles everywhere...yuck. Photo credit: Stephen Clement www.facebook.com/sjaclement?fr…

Next is a graffiti filled alleyway where Sayaka and Kyouko (me) have their epic duel

We spent about 5 hours shooting this scene (which will probably be condensed into less than a minute in the video ;__; ).

Smelly doorway was super smelly, we had to hold our breaths, jump in, take a few snaps and then run out to breath Photo credit: RayLumPhotography

Then we shot at a local elementary school in the Madoka school uniforms. Except for me, cuz Kyouko is a dropout >__> _{ohoho, such a rebel I am}
It was an interesting experience because there was a high school football game going on right beside us LOL

Finally, Kurai-Hisaki ran a marathon up hills, a forest and a bridge to finish the final scenes of the film. NOW THE WAIT BEGINS (or rather the editing begins for the videographer

).

The full film should be posted up in early 2013. Soooo, subscribe to Cosmeko's youtube channel to see it when its out! www.youtube.com/user/Cosmeko
