END . (Of the world ?!) .. PARTAAY !

Yea so , Today was the very last day of shooting . The very last . Until season two ? :D

But yea . Unfortuently , we're all done shooting ., and wont all be together until the wrap party in a few weeks. Its gonna be really weird to wake up , and not have a shower , then go to set. Now Its gonna be , wake up , laze around for an hour , think about getting up , laze around for another hour, than go eat .
And not seeing the cast and crew everyday will be.. upsetting ? Yes . thats the right word . They're all my family now . And its hard to be away from family . Hopefully I can see everyone very soon :)

This whole experience, every minute of it , has been crazy . I can't even believe what stuff I've gone through . I've run away screaming 10 times.! No, but , honestly . I've hung out with a knight and a Pirate! I got to stcik/sword fight for an hour straight (Causing a huge blister on my thumb), I got to be in a classroom with abunch of random kids, and pretend I've known them forever. I've practically lived in all these different places . Wesley , The studio , the woods , The high school. Just everywhere we've worked. Its gonna be so weird to not travel everywhere , or get mad when an airplane goes by (audio).

Tom , Tom , And Nick (Maybe more?) Are now working on Post Preduction for the next .. 4-5 months ? Fun , I know . Actually it is fun . To make everything you've watched been shot , finally come into place . Making the full episodes , and seeing how all the effects work out. Im jealous to be honest. Im very excited to see everything once done. It should be incredible. I really wanna see what its gonna look like . And I'm very exited to see myself on the computer. And it'll be weird for other people to be commenting on things like my acting . I'm excited to see what people think of me . And what I think of me.

Everyone has been thinking this whole shoot, this one question no body has the answer to ; Will this get big ? Well , nobody knows . It'd be interesting to actually have a budget to do things . We'd probably have a lot more crew, and better costume and such . And actually get paid . Its amazing everybody has volunteered there time for this . theres probably about 60 people in total, that have, and will, volunteer to help us out. All, as much as me , hoping for it to go big. It would be very exciting, and im sure everyone would be super happy. I myself , would be super excited . It'd be very cool to be 'known'. But , what if this doesn't go big ? What happens if it doesnt get picked up ? Well , it was still an amazing expierence . One Ill probably never be able to have again unless It gets picked up , or I continue to act. Its been the best summer of my life by far, and the summer's only half done ! I don't know what to do , if I don't act! Maybe I can just act like Im doing something .....

But anyways ,
Today went great. We had 3 short scenes to do , and they were nice and quiiiick . They were all lots of fun too . Since we kids were the only ones people in the school , sneakin around .. Or were we ? haha , in one of the scenes I had to run around alot . And I got really sweaty. Just puttin' that out there.

Once all the kids were wrapped , we decided it'd be appropriate to have an After party. So we decided to meet at young mark (Andrew)'s House later on .
I have to say, it was lots of fun. When we got there, we played hide n' go seek, and I owned. (I am the chosen one and all .) Then we went and played tennis . Me and Turtle kept hitting the ball out of the court and it was tons of fun. 'Cept our opponents got angry .. :)
We then decided to play Manhunt in the forest. That was lots of fun . Turtle (Darius) found a frog , and threw it at Jodre (Koji). Then they ran at me since they were it . I gotta way , with my ninja skills though. (Isn't Koji supposed to be the ninja ..?) Then halfway through All the adults unexpectedly came, and chilled with us . We then had a nerf gun war. And mingled with the adults .
Eventually , we had the 'minds eye cake',. We recorded it , and made every possible filming joke possible. It'll be on the site . It was pretty funny. And the cake tasted great !

So , Theres a big thank list I just must say .
Obviously , I'd like to thank Thomas. He's been a great inspiration to all the kids, and we couldn't of gotten through it without him . He was funny , and loving of everyone. Thank you Thomas. We love you :)
I wanna thank Tom as well , for being an epic co-director , and being so good with us kids .
Nick for Being an epic camera man, Soch for being funny 24/7 and making us sound perfect, Chris for slating , Danika for being an amazing ass-director, Lindsey for being out there to help and take snaps, The blackthorn guys for doing very many things, James the cop for letting us use his house , and directing, Zeeke and his wife for wardrobe, Lovina and Ashley for making me look stunning on camera day after day , Spenny for manning the camera, and so many more too . I wanna thank all the mothers , especially mine , for always being there on set for me , and having what I need. Thanks mom :)
I think its very appropriate that since I (Nik/Illia) is going on vacation , the theme of my blog changes ?


Made fully by meee:)

I'll find a theme , and be changing it shortly . Just made that , and wanted to show everyone :)
I'll be updating more like once a week probably , and more about what I miss about Mind's eye , and other stuff I realize about Illia .

I hope theres a second season , and you should too :)

I'll be bloggin' !
