Filming so far, and my list of problems.

Over half term, filming didn't go quite as planned. During monday, my narrative actors were filming the 'tent' scene, which would last a total of 10mins. Unfortunately, it decided to rain half way through filming, and with wet props, no other filming could take place. 

Tuesday was the day for filming of the 'band' scenes and possible auxiliary task photography. One of the actors/band members didn't turn up, and the footage taken during that day was of a poor quality, due to the actors lack of seriousness, so this might have to be re-filmed. There are also slight continuity errors within some shots, but some is of a 'usable' quality. 

Friday was meant to be the big filming day set at Banham Zoo, which was problem free until both actors had calls the day before from where they work, telling them they had shifts. With it now being November, it's getting darker earlier, and the zoo now shuts at 4pm, giving me less time to film. But my main concern is the actors availability, as college and work commitments have given me 3 days this month that one of the actors are free; all a Tuesday. Unfortunately these dates are too far away, so either both actors will have to free up some time within the next two weeks, or they must be replaced immediately so filming, and re-filming, can continue.
The car originally used in filming may also be indisposed, as the owner is having an operation on the 12th November, so other travel arrangements must be made.
Hopefully next lesson will prove more productive.
