Raining!  Outdoor filming not possible so we will have to reshoot shots 5-8 at a later date.

Our main actor is ill!  Major rearrangement of the schedule is required.

Production Successes

8/11
Started filming today!  Everyone turned up and we got a great bird's eye view from out of the window, which we hadn't storyboarded, but will definitely use.

Production

You have now spent weeks analysing models of opening sequences, practicing your filming and editing skills and planning how to realise your creative ideas.

Your blog is a record of all of these things and while you film and edit, it is also a place to record your successes and failures.

Production work can be exciting and consuming, so it's important that you keep a log of what you achieve and the obstacles that influence your creation.

Create two posts, one for successes and one for obstacles, and update them after each production session.
