This summer has been busy recording and making a video. We recorded in June and July in Drumforest studio and got a lot done. The recording continues, but we managed to have time to shoot a video too…And it was fun! We shoot the video this week in Kangasniemi, a little town in South-Eastern Finland. We shoot at this big abandoned house. Everybody had their hands full and our make-up artist Anni and costumier Elina were suppose to create fife different characters out of me and make the boys look old. Right away I managed to get wrinkles in my dress and made Elina mad:)
The guys had a bunch of fun playing to be old people for one day…quite dirty little grandpas they became! As the night started to fall, the abandoned house started to be quite a atmospheric place to be. The wine bottle on the table was found in the closet and is older than any of the guys.
We named this costume below a popcorn and since popcorns don’t have appendices, Anni had to cover the scar from my appendix surgery.
In the night we drove to the middle of the forest and shoot the last scene of the day by a deserted car. It was cold as in polar bear’s stomach and I have to admit…quite scary. We had shoot around 20 hours, but it’s not that often that I get to play an indian, arabic princess and popcorn, so the time had flied.
We didn’t see any ghosts in the abandoned house in the night, but when we returned the next day it started to haunt. Something made such a noise inside of the house that we had to count the crew in the case that we had accidentally locked someone in the night before. Otherwise the last day was relaxed and only thing delaying the shoot was bees that really wanted to make a nest in my mouth.
Hopefully, the video will be published in November, can’t wait to let you guys see it!!
