problems during production

Nowhere in our research did it say anything about old west cowboys having purple nails, so when Emi showed up to film with the brightest purple nails possible, we knew we have failed in that regard. We first tried scraping them off, but that got us nowhere.

We then had to resort to trying to get shots that worked around Emi’s nails. This included Renn acting as Emi’s hands for a shot. 
With some clever camera tricks and a few workarounds, we were able to successfully hide her nails, and keep the illusion of an old west woman alive.
