Shooting Week 1

The weekend of filming didn't go as planned and on saturday we found out we couldn't use are location which was quite vital for our story. Things seemed a bit more hopeful when Nick said he knew a friend who had woods behind his garden and that it would be a good location for our story and easy to adapt to. However, when we got to the guys house we found out that there was no way to get to the woods as the fence had barbed wire on it. We sat a discussed our options and threw ideas back and forth but there was nothing concrete being said. We decided that it was a bit pointless carrying on and it was getting quite late, so we went home and started to blog a few ideas for the location.
On Sunday we decided to change the whole story so we could use a more easy and workable location which later turned out to be Nicks house as he had some garages round the back of his house which looked good in the dark. We arrived at Nicks house put some relaxing metalcore music on and started to work on our new idea. We blogged, made storyboards and wrote general story synopsis's. We then started to work on one of our props which is a detectives crime board and that took awhile. After we had taken some pictures of our actor in character we did a reccy of our locations, taking pictures as we went.
Although we didn't get any filming done we did make massive strides in our new idea which was really important in ensuring that the next weekend of filming runs very smoothly with little or hopefully no problems.
