Fei, my second AD called my film the "lunatic film".
There are many reasons why she is my AD. She is loud. She has a lot of energy. She is dedicated. She is cheerful. And she is crazy.

We spent a lot of time waiting for moon. Quite often it get covered by clouds.

We tried a few way to solve it.
My AD suggested that we should do some prayers so that the rain will go away.
First we wanted to try the usual custom here. People in production use onions and dried chilies to ward off the clouds. But someone told us that this prayers will only work if carried out by a virgin. So we gave up the idea.
In the end, my AD made a sunny doll:

Yes, she made it with some toilet paper.
And it worked! The shoots were extremely smooth, hence I have no time to update my blog.
Maybe I will just share some photos tomorrow.
