One Bed Trope

    di The Viper: Off Campus

    The one bed trope remains a staple of romance stories for a reason. It forces proximity and tension between characters who would otherwise keep their distance.

    Sorry for thinking you were a gentleman. Apology accepted. I'm not sleeping on the floor. It really sounds like a pickle. You just discovered that the other day. I'm just learning about the one-bed trope. It's like you check into a hotel, but there's only one room available, and there's only a one-bed room. That's the story, Josh. Yeah, you should be an author. Nailed it. The other tropes are more broad, you know, like enemies to lovers, or fake dating is like a whole kind of, that encapsulates a story. But a one bed trope is like little just a very specific instance Yeah, so I didn't know it as a trope in the family of tropes even after we've done it So I'm learning about the trope now. Yeah, you know about yesterday. I know Well, I didn't know it was like maybe I didn't know it's not just me I didn't say that. No, I knew. That's one of my favorite scenes actually. Because it's so like eight minutes long, it's very sweet and you really get to live in that moment with them. Was that hard for you guys to get those lines down For that That was a long scene We called the night before and ran through them Uh that right And then we just spent the whole day doing it Because it was a split screen for a lot of them He filmed his bit first and then they recorded his favorite take and they put it in my ear as an earpiece. And then it just became kind of weird because Belle was still there. I was laying on the floor just so I could be there. Yeah, just so I could look at you, but he's not talking because I can hear it in my ear. So then we were just like, let's just put it on the speaker because it has to be matching up perfectly. Yeah, it was really fun. I never filmed a split screen. The writing of that scene is just so perfect for that moment. So we were going over lines, but that's an easy one to memorize because it's really just a well thought out conversation. When lines are easy to memorize, it's just because that is what the next person would say. That was easy, yeah. And what's nice about that scene too is we have a physical barrier being the bed between us. It's like being on the phone. It's like you're having a conversation kind of alone. but in this case also in the room. So we're having moments, you know, like Garrett and Hannah are having their own moments of reacting and contemplation and like the way they tell a story. There's no eye contact involved. That was a fun dynamic.
