Having studied Drama at GCSE I understand that many students look for acting experience and this could be a good opportunity for them. This makes them more likely to be reliable and will want to be fully committed to our filming project. I contacted my previous Drama teacher asking for three actors who could fulfil the roles that we require.

The actors previously mentioned have not been able to participate in our film. I have contacted a friend who does drama at A Level who know some actors who could be trustworthy. Tomorrow as a group we will start filming the car wipe scene in order to progress with our film. We are hoping to film for the full day on Friday the 20th of February when we hope to complete the rest of the filming process.

Today we filmed the first scene of our film. This was the wipe scene with the bus. The weather conditions today meant that filming was made more difficult due to the wind and rain. This could effect the quality of the film. To add to this the location we chose meant that it was in a town as busses would frequently pass here however this also meant that there were many people in the area who interrupted our filming. This mean we had to take more shots than anticipated.

Today we will make the final arrangements for our day of filming tomorrow. This will be the main day filming before we start to edit the film.
The filming during the day went smoothly however we had some minor problems. again weather conditions meant that it was difficult to get some of the shots that we wanted. To add to this we had a few issues with the camera due to our little experience with different equipment however this was overcome. Overall the filming was successful despite the few issues described.

Over the previous days we have been editing the large sections of the film, during this process we have noticed some gaps in the filming that are effecting the overall smoothness o the storyline. To ensure the story is understandable we need to film the remaining conversation and other smaller sections throughout the weekend. This should be the final day of filming.
We have also been researching potential music sources that could be used for our film in order to create tension and a sense of atmosphere. The link below is a website we found that offers free, uncredited music.
Thursday 20th March 2014
Today is the final day of filming. We shall complete the rest of the remaining scenes that need to be filmed in order to complete the editing process. We have selected the music for our film that will accompany the storyline. We need to re complete some different shots that weren't in focus or weren't at the correct angles to create the correct connotations of certain characters.
