This is why, while filming, we made sure to be safe. We wore masks while we were with other folks.both on and off camera When we were filming, we made sure to keep a safe distance from passers-by. We were also being watched while filming at night. We utilized a fake knife instead of a real one for the killing scenario. This was done to ensure that no one was injured. We shot in locations that we were familiar with. We did this because we didn't want to be in an unsafe environment.
