Props

After two days of filming we are quite far into our project now. We shouldn't need too much longer to get it finished filming-wise, and we will post as a group soon regarding those two days and how well (or not so well!) they went.

There has been a slight problem over this past week, however: we were not able to get hold of a rag doll which was crucial to our film's storyline. For this reason, we couldn't shoot several scenes of our opening which needed to be shot. Luckily I managed to pick one up today and so we can film with it on our third day of filming - however because of this slight hiccup we have been behind schedule and we should have got these scenes finished by now.

I have definitely learned from this mistake - it was a problem for us to assume that we would be able to buy a rag doll from anywhere, and it was certainly a problem that we spent a lot of filming time searching for shops to buy one in instead of being able to get on with our filming. It's something that we've all learned from - we must remember to be prepared in the future, and have all props ready before they're needed.
