Thursday - it's a rap

We've done it- we've finally finished filming. It's been a very long day. Chaos was the name of the game today. We were all running around like headless chickens trying to get everything together, making sure everything was put into place ready for filming. There were two cameras shooting at the same time. Everyone was panicking and some of us got the giggles from the pressure which didn't go down very well in front of the camera. Adam and Terry had to keep on doing the same scene over and over as they kept getting the giggles. It was hilarious but I don't think the film crew saw the funny side of things, oops!

There was a party scene that we had to shoot and at one point I think everyone thought we were really at a party! Chris did some of his break dancing moves. He's goooood!

We finished filming on time and everyone rejoiced with triumph and a sense of achievement. Then it was time to say goodbye to the film crew. They were really good to work with and we all made a good team. Thanks BBC film crew!

This week has been very hectic but it has all paid off in the end. We will go back to meet with the BBC team to help edit the material we have to finally get a look at the finished product. Oh- it's all so exciting!

Thanks for reading,

Mo
