Transcript
00:00Did she scare you at all or was it just the one time to me?
00:03It was just the one time, yeah.
00:04She scared me more than I've ever been scared in years.
00:07We were in the middle of the scene where we're kissing in the kitchen and...
00:11You and Dakota.
00:11Yes, Dakota and I are kissing in the kitchen and then she sees Verity in the hallway.
00:16We're just rehearsing it.
00:18Walking off into the darkness, just kind of, Annie, you can take it from...
00:22She was looking for a place to hide so she could be...
00:24Because the camera...
00:24So it was very important that the camera, you know,
00:27it's Dakota and Josh are in the forefront of the frame and then Dakota sees me and then the camera
00:34goes back to them
00:34and when the camera goes back in a single shot, I'm not there anymore.
00:38So the question was, where can I hide that you don't see me on camera?
00:42So I was trying to find like an alcove and I was trying to like press myself back into it.
00:46I'm like, I think this will work.
00:47And then I look up and I saw Josh walking towards me and he's...
00:51Yeah, he's in Jeremy mode. You're like rehearsing.
00:53And I also thought, you know, like Annie would just be a normal person and like go off.
00:57To sit down in her, you know, her chair, her director's chair.
01:00No, I was exploring the space.
01:02And so anyway, so I realized Josh was coming towards me.
01:04He had no idea I was there.
01:05I looked like a ghost.
01:07I was in like one of my more terrifying outfits in this.
01:09And so when he went...
01:11And I also knew I couldn't like scream boo because there were too many people around
01:14and it would be too disruptive.
01:15So I was like, what can I do that's just for Josh?
01:18And so when he went by me, I just went...
01:22She hissed at me and I was not expecting it.
01:25And that house is a little bit spooky too.
01:26And it was really dark and I jumped.
01:28I was just...
01:29You were so scared.
01:30I froze.
01:31And I was like, I don't think I've been that scared in years.
01:33I think I said, but it must be since I was a child.
01:35But the thing that I loved was that Josh was clearly so scared,
01:38but also managed to be so articulate at the same time.
01:41And he just went, you scared me.
01:43That's the worst I've been scared in years.
