Production - filming

I didn't have chance to introduce our actors. We were really lucky and our Producer (Rebecca) has friends from drama course. They were happy to help us, it was a good practise for them, so was for us. They got to know the script to understood the idea of the movie.

We were lucky enough to have a quiet background that day, as there were no people in the cafe.

During the filming I learnt a few important things:

1. Always check the equipement before you take it for filming- we had an issue with a battery, and we had to use a Canon emergency camera instead as a solution for that problem.
2. Make sure the actors understand the plot and their reactions are accurate- for example the relief or being scared. It's all about their expressions.
3. Make sure the actors wear the same outfits, have the same hairstyle and jewellery. All the details matters!
4. Make sure the background is exactly the same to avoid misunderstanding. Movie need to have its continuity.
5. Make sure, that actors are in the exactly same position, when you are filming a continuing scene to avoid jumps.
