Free Blog - Week of filming

Our group this week is planning on finishing and tighening all of our pre-production work including our storyboards and our final script so when we get onto filming during the week we are fully prepared and we go out on the field knowing exactly what we aim to come back with. Today has been spent putting work up onto Google Docs to link into evaluative blogs later in the course and finalising any work that has gaps. Tomorrow a meeting will be held with the group to talk over everything we have planned, making sure that everyone is clear on their duties and what we have to achieve in filming, and creating a strict and timetabled production schedule separate from our beginning one, to detail our day of filming and to plan out our alloted time spareingly. I plan on doing the filming on Wednesday after college between 12.30pm and 6pm, as this gives us at least 5 hours time to film before it gets dark.
One problem we're facing though is booking actors and actresses to be in our production. We have 2 definiate people who have agreed, but we need one more, who is proving very difficult to find. Especially because this character has to be slightly more 'intimate' with another character than they would like, also we're being very specific about the appearance of her, because we want to give the right impression and meaning to the audience about her connection to another of the characters. Hopefully by Wednesday we will have found someone suitable.
This then means that we have starting as of Thursday this week, and all of the rest of the term, to create a final edit for our title sequence, and write the evaluation. I want to make sure our group has enough time on the evaluation as a poor attempt could lose us marks I know we all deserve. I'm trying to get other team members to blog a lot this week, because we're at a critical stage in our production that will need to be analysed in our evaluation quite thoroughly.
