Date; 17th Feb
We organised to meet at at Tamsyns at 3pm and it did not take us long to start filming as Ronnis costume and hair have already been done by Tamsyns. All that has to be done was for me to help Mohammed wear his costume and do his hair. As we planned to film Nancys bit of walking up the stairs and dropping the letter we decided to do that first. It was hard to know exactly where to place the camera to get the best shots so we took it from many different angles and made sure that we did not break the 180 degree rule. What we found most difficult was getting the letter to drop from Nancys bag while she was walking up the stairs. We resulted this by having her slightly tip the letter with her hand to make it drop. In addition to this we also had to make sure that the letter fell on the 5th step as the scene we did before this we had Nancys mum pick it up from there, so for continuity reasons that had to be done.
For next time we know that we should leave more time for filming as for just that scene it took all our shooting time and we were not able to get the shots of Ajmal sneaking in through the window done. Although this still helpd us as we saw that the costumes chosen for both characters were a good fit to the era we have chosen and looked good on camera.
