Exams

Now that our exams are out of the way, we are able to film properly once again, many if not all of our actors were bogged down with exams and therefore we were unable to film when we wanted/were able to. We have booked 'Goals' for this weekend with twelve actors; we have an hour to film and we film we should be able to get enough footage to complete our advert two. We have decided to take two cameras along to 'Goals' so that we can get maximum angles and the best shots possible.

Now the exams are out of the way all we need is for the weather to pick up a bit!

Frustration and how to get past it

Due to the current weather conditions being different to when we filmed Tom and I have been unable to film any more of our advert 1; instead we have decided to focus on ad 2 for the current time, until we get a day when the roads aren't wet where we filmed.

This means we have 2/3 of our advert 1 filmed and cut to our like and we only need to re-shoot a few shots and film the last few ending scenes. Still it is becoming frustrating as it's looking like we might not make our deadlines for two adverts finished and one rough to be in on the 30th of January.

We will try and get it done, but may need a few more days, sunny days hopefully.

Christmas Break

Due to both Tom and I being busy over the christmas break, we had set out a filming schedule that suited both of us for specific days in the break. Unfortunately on three of these days, there were road works on the road that we had previously filmed on, meaning we were unable to film on that road. We attempted to film on some other roads but they were too short, too busy and didn't look anything like the road we had previously filmed down. Therefore we decided not to use any of the footage.

Another problem was that I had a loose hubcap and took it off, as I had ordered another hubcap and was expecting to receive it before the end of the break as I had ordered it on christmas eve, I still haven't received it.

Therefore we were disappointed that we didn't get any filming done, but have already sorted out a shooting schedule to finish advert one and get the majority of advert two done by the start of february.
