Filming shizzle

On the weekend we decided to film on, we encountered some issues:
- George wasn't able to attend on sat , henry on Sunday (originally )
so at the time this seemed somewhat doomed towards how to make this work. On the sat henry came down to film with us and us three realised that it wouldn't work to shoot without him being present on the Sunday so after a long talk, about how much we appreciate him dropping plans + events, we came back on Sunday and had a very successful shoot.
- the lighting seemed too dark at the time to work with and being very cold it wore the battery's down very quick to film so a lot of spare battery's came in handy.

some things we decided to cut from our film:
-the use of a bag to conceal items in, as for both of our characters, it seemed too hard to run realistcly and not drop it, this made the prop useless to us.
-the use of helmet/gas-mask as these both were incredibly hard to get hold of to use and also felt too much to be using it made the film seem to army based and we hadn't intended on it to seem that way
-also our location changed from corridors+tunnels, due to the fact that we all looked hard for places like we showed it we couldent find any and we setteled for more of a, urban style film.

As what has been set about me, george and henry not be able to attend on one of the two nights, saturday was the night that i could not attend, the original plan was that they all recorded the monster scenes, then on the sunday when i could attend we would record the soldier scenes. It turns out that this plan wasn't very good. However, henry managed to attend on the sunday so we filmed everything on that day. The saturday was just a chance to ffind perfect locations and test shots. To really get prepared before he filming on sunday.
