Well, that's it, I just got back in from filming the final shots for the short film entry for the Virgin Media Shorts competition. We started at about half 12, filmed all of the interior shots, finished them at about half 6, then waited until it was dark to go and film the night-shots (which, given it being one of the longest days of the year, was quite a while, but we got it done) and finished them at about quarter past 11.
Lee Carter also had to wear a costume that involved him being completely clad head-to-toe in black on one of the hottest days of the year too... anyone would think we really didn't think this through! I'm also worried that Jake Collingwood may have caught some kind of disease from the amount of times we asked him to fall over in an alleyway in the middle of Gillingham that probably had broken glass and other fun items. These guys really seemed to suffer today, but they seemed to have fun... and we even sung along to "The Final Countdown" during one of our breaks! We recorded the voice-over yesterday too in RMGS's recording studio, which also went really well, so I have to say a huge thanks to Matt Ennis for his help recording that. And last, but by no means least, a giant thanks to my family for all of their support and help in setting this up (and to 2 of them for acting in it), seriously, I couldn't have done it without these guys.
I'll put up a couple of pictures once this film is near to being uploaded, so keep an eye out for them (they will go up on this blog first, and then on Facebook with my photo production log).
So now I sit here by my computer and face a night of solid editing, this should be fun...
