The Assistant | Scavi

It was a long day. After the first scene which was shot in the early morning, they shot a variety of scenes in the forest, at a waterfall and in some deserted shops. Scott was always around Avi and Mary, learning a lot about videography and how to work quickly and effectively. Also, he took care of Avi, brought him water and took the heavy sack of stones off of him when they weren't filming.

"Your back will be so sore tomorrow" Scott said once they arrived back at the cabin. They were the first to be there. Avi had wanted to drive his own car, so he could have some quiet between shoots and of course he had offered Scott a seat, too.

The blonde had debated talking to Avi about the kiss they had shared, but decided against it. Avi himself had said that they would talk later and he respected it.

Avi shrugged his shoulders and grimaced. "Probably" he said. "Anyway... we need to film an interview situation for promo clips and everything. I hope it will be a quick thing, because I am craving BBQ" he said and winked at Scott.

Because there were a some crew members arriving Scott didn't reply anything, but just smiled. "Do you want anything from catering?"

"Not really, thank you. I just want to get this over with" Avi replied and stretched his arms. "I'm ready to get away from the people."

Scott smiled at him as he remembered their talk in the car. "I get that. But you're doing so good. Just hold on a little longer."

Avi smiled at him. "I know... I am fine, though, don't worry. Everyone is really nice, though and it helps."

Scott chuckled. "And Mary has everyone under control and she is wonderful."

Avi nodded. "She is. She did quite a few of my videos. She's a freelancer, so she's not always available but when she is she's my first choice" he explained.

"I get why she is..." Scott replied.

"Talking about me?" Mary joined them and smiled brightly. "That was a quick shoot, by the way, It's 4 and we're done with the music video."

Avi smiled and nodded. "Yes, I know. And I am glad, your team is always so prepared."

"Thanks, Avi" Mary smiled. "Now... I'll have a quick coffee and then we can start on the interview scenes. Did you want to change?"

Avi grinned. "Yeah, I'd rather wear my trusty black jeans and shirt..." he explained. "Let's start in 10?"

"Of course" Mary replied.

Shooting the little snippets for the interview took them another hour. Avi knew exactly what he wanted to say about the EP in general and about each song and with Avi's calm way of speaking he hardly made any mistakes.

"That's a wrap!" Mary clapped her hands as they had finished the last scene. "Wonderful work everyone. Gather your stuff, make sure that all rooms are left the way we found them this morning and before you go, please have a snack, there's a lot of food left."

The crew members started to tidy up their equipment and Avi joined Mary and Scott. "Excellent work today, Mary."

"I can only return this" Mary said. "It's always a pleasure to work with you. I know that video shoots are not your favourite thing, but you're always so focused."

Avi chuckled. "Yeah, because I want to get it done."

Mary laughed, too. "Well, whatever keeps you motivated." She then turned to Scott. "It's a pity that you want to go into music production. "You're very talented and you literally soaked up everything I told you."
