Shooting Day 2: The Tunnel

On our second shooting day, we filmed the later scene of our film opening. We filmed at the tunnel location and we thought it worked really well with the scene we shot. We did several takes to ensure we had as much footage to edit as we could and get the best possible shots. We experienced some trouble with the fact it was a public place and we could not control people walking past and into shots. Also we were not sure if the lighting level would be suitable but after reviewing the footage it was fine. Overall the shooting day was successful and we were pleased with our result.

Once again Amy C did our actress Cally's hair and make up which she made sure was exactly like our first shooting day to keep continuity. These on location photos show the hair and make up process.

This is Cally in costume after Amy completed the costuming and make up. After filming we all thought our choice of costuming worked really well.

On our first shooting day however Cally had a bag she brought with her but this was forgotten on the second shooting day. In order to correct this we have decided to add a small scene of her ditching the bag before she gets in London. We thought this was in keeping with the story line as you wouldn't need a bag if you were rioting and hints to her discarding any part of her home character. 

This is our cast getting ready to film and changing into costume. 

Our gang consisted of Amy C, Beth, Harry and me (Amy F).

Here is Daisy and Farah setting up the tripod preparing
to film the gang shots as they did this together.
To the left is Daisy setting up the camera ready to
start filming.

 This is after Daisy actually started to film the part of the scene where Cally runs down the stairs to meet the gang at the bottom. We liked the angle of filming her coming downstairs as previously when she goes down the stairs in the house we filmed her from behind going down and we liked the contrast of the different direction. 

I thought I would get an on location of our main protagonist
in costume and which reflects the theme of our opening.
