Lift off

It turned out to be a success with the camera today - we actually got it. Also finally we have an actor thanks to Kieron. This has probably been the most difficult part of the project, finding available actors when the cameras and locations are available too!!

To start, we filmed the award ceremony scenes one after the other. This was because we didn't know how much time we had in the lecture theatre, and also saves a lot of moving about with the camera going from one place to the other. We shot all of the scenes several times over, changing the camera angle every time to get different perspectives. We intend to edit the other scenes in-between all of these, and mix up each so we are including the various angles.

Learning from our previous mistakes, we gave the equipment back, and booked our next time already. We have our actor for Monday morning, so are hoping to film the workshop scenes then. The rest we are able to do without the actor - as its 'the end of the world' we just need deserted locations. Feel much better about it all now that we have started, at least its one step forward.

P.S - WHERE WAS OUR PRODUCER TODAY?? Annie you better be there monday!
