Thursday 10th of December.

In our CRaM class on Thursday our group decided that we would be filming on that day rather than the next day. So after we made our decision we went to Cineworld to do our filming. After the long walk there we began filming, this was quite difficult at the time as we were a big group of people and most of the people weren't cooperating, and everything was taking too much time. After about half an hour or so, one of the security guards had told us to leave as our location was a private property and we weren't allowed to film there.


We had already filmed most of what we needed, only one last bit was left and we could do that in Coleridge. After we filmed our last scene at Coleridge, we uploaded everything to the computer and edited it all roughly. After we watched it a few times and got others opinions on it, we realized that all our footage was completely useless and didn't make the least bit of sense.
This definitely brought all our moods down, and now we were behind everyone else, as most people had finished filming and some even editing. So in the last few lessons on Thursday we talked about the alternatives, after a discussion about what we were going to do instead we decided that it would be good to film at my grandmas house, as it was convenient and only across the road from school. After my Grandma agreed to us filming there, we quickly decided what we would change from our previous script, and how the story would be different.
Even though we haven't achieved anything in this lesson, or made anything useful, I think that it was a good experience even if it was a complete failure. I think I learnt quite a few things this lesson. Next week we will be much more prepared and will have costumes, and wont have to worry about walking far away. There wont be as many risks either, while outside there are many different things which could happen. Someone stealing the camera, Rain, being on private property without permission etc.
So even if we didn't manage to produce anything useful in this lesson, I think we still learnt useful things.
