Filming Journal (Editor Audrey Khanye)

Location
The location of our film is in Havering college. The different scenes of the film took place in B block and also the teacher car-park. During the pre-production we took some pictures of the set location and posted them on the blog. However due to the change of plans we have to take new pictures and upload them on to our blog.

What was filmed?
2nd march
today we had planned to film, to prepare for this Georgia took a callsheet to book out the camera equipment so there wouldn't be any clashes, as there are many other students filming at this time. However we had to reschedule because our case members were unable to make it.

9th march
Today was the day that we were finally able to film. A few problems occurred as we were about to start filming like a missing cast member, and a change in our location however as a group we were able to come up with a solution and we went on to film. When we filmed the car park scene it was a bit difficult due to the weather being really cold and windy, however we were able to get it done.


problems occurred?
Change of plans-initially our director had found a cast member (Sheena) to play the role of Natalie the innocent antagonist, as we felt that she was suited to play the part. However due to other commitments Sheena was unable to make on the the day that we were due to film, so we were in a bit of a pickle about where we were going to find our second cast member at such short notice. At last we came up with a solution Georgia, our director was going to play the part that Sheena was supposed to play as she also fitted the description of a typical white female college student . We also had to change the location of our film from H to B block as the lighting in H block was more limited than the light in B block. We needed more lighting in order to film the scene that took place inside the college building. The change in the location and cast also means that we have to make alterations on our blog as we have already posted up some pictures of the old location. Adding to that we also had to change our 90 minute synopsis as we decided to change our story line.

Overall turn out
The overall turn out of our filming was good despite the problems that had occurred at the last minute. We worked well as a group and we were able to rectify any issues. Even though we had different roles(as group members) we were able to help each other out .
