Shoot Day 3: Zichron Ya'Akov



It is hard to believe that day 3 is over and done. We all have been working really hard. Today, we stayed in Zichron Ya'akov to shoot the torture house, a vinyard, Zichron street, a cemetery, a synagogue, and the Nili museum.

First, we filmed the kids visiting the museum and then got exteriors of the house. (Of course we were not allowed to film inside the "houses," but we were allowed to film in the museum part, which is separate than the "houses.")



The filming went smoothly and the weather was perfect. After getting a few shots of Zichron, we headed back to the main thoroughfare to get the keys for the synagogue from an older gentleman who owns a cafe - just across the street from the synagogue. We opened the synagogue and got the shots we needed. I must say, it was one of the highlights of the day. I have enclosed a picture, which I think speaks for itself. I took it from the women's section. The place was beautiful and I would love to go to Shabbat services, while I am here. The gentleman was very kind enough to give us permission to go in.
When people trust you here, they give you the world!



Tomorrow: We are filming the biggest day of the whole entire shoot because we will have 9 people including crew and cast on location for an all day shoot. (9am -6pm).

Take care,

Leora
