Problems I Have Encountered

Throughout the whole process of filming I was unfortunately faced with many problems. During the course of my filming to begin with, I had been told right beforehand that I wouldn't be able to have as much time as I would've wanted for filming. I planned to begin filming straight after school, 3:15 and two of my actors unfortunately had responsibilities and were to leave early, therefore I was only given just over an hour to film my film opening. I was panicked and worried that I wouldn't be able to achieve all my required shots, given the little time that I had. Furthermore, I was kindly given permission from our school's drama department to use their costumes, however, I was told by them that they were to be handed back by around 4:45. After school I tried as hard as I could to gather everyone and try to work as quickly and smoothly as possible so we could get all the required shots and at the same time return the costumes to the drama department.

It was a very stressful day, however I managed to somewhat get enough shots to build a plot. Fortunately, as I had a lot of costumes to carry, my friends offered to help me by carrying them back to the school, to the drama department. We managed to return back to school with just little time to spare, and hand the costumes back to the drama department.

Overall I believe that although throughout the filming process I encountered many limitations, I was proud of the actors I chose as well as the filming that I managed to come away with.
