Organisation of Filming - Sam McLeish

As shown in the location post, we planned to shoot our film in the lighting cage used by the Production Arts students, last Friday (this was posted on 14/12/2015) when all members and actors had free periods (see below). However, after liaising with David Upcraft (my Production Arts teacher), The Hub, which is the performance area that is overlooked from the lighting cage, was being used by a performance for local Junior School children being performed by the Performing Arts class. 

Due to this factor, we spoke with the actors, as well as Marion (our teacher for the lesson), and came to the conclusion that it would only be possible to film this week, despite the fact that the deadline for the filming was for Friday. 

On the timetable, it shows that we only have an hour for filming whilst we are free. This should not be an issue as the actors are well rehearsed, it will not take long for the set to be ready and it is only a short scene. 

Assuming that filming will be completed in this time space, this leaves us in a position where we can edit the footage on Wednesday (P5/6) as a group and then individually after that. 

If the shoot isn't complete in this time, or if more footage is needed, we always have the Wednesday as backup so we are now in the comfortable position to meet the editing deadline for this Friday.
