OK, so yesterday we filmed a couple of scenes with Chris, who is playing Simon. It went swimmingly all things considered. It's good to finally see it coming to life having worked hard on the script for the last few weeks. I'm liking what Chris is doing with the character, too. Today, we carried on and recorded most of Pamela's segment with Jessica (our actress). Again, she was brilliant, and put up with our daft meanderings for a good few hours.
Technically, we're doing quite well. Max and I are working well together on the sound, advising and consulting each other about decisions and techniques to get the best clarity and depth out of our sound design. Amy's doing really well with the camera, coming up with creative ideas about shot composition and framing. With Verity assisting her, there's really no problem in that department. Will's getting stuck in too, trying to lend a hand wherever he can, cable bashing being a priority. It's a pretty mundane job to do most of the time, but it's still important, and saves a hell of a lot of time in the long run.
Hopefully, Marcus' segment will be done by tomorrow, and filming on the final segment of the film will be concluded after the Easter break. We should be able to get in the edit suite over the holiday too, to begin cutting together what we've got so far. that will save us time, as the last filmed sequence can simply be cut in when ready.
I should have a few video blogs to embed here in the coming weeks, too. I took my camcorder on the shoots and managed to get some behind the scenes stuff on the set. These should illustrate nicely what we've been up to and how we work as a team. I'm optimistic about tomorrow and the next few weeks. I hope everyone else is. Of course they are! why shouldn't they be? Well, I'd better get ready for tomorrow, another day of staying quiet in the cold and teasing Max.
