Tuesday - telling the story

Today, we arrived at the venue where we would be shooting for the week. We looked at all the rooms available for shooting.

We decided on how many scenes we would have for each character by storyboarding. This helped us find out what would happen in each scene, what props we would need and what characters would be needed keeping in mind of the time as we only had a total of 10 minutes. We also finalised who would be the 3 main characters: Adam, Qadra and Chris were the chosen ones!!

We then got into groups for each character to decide on the extras and looked into where we could shoot each scene from the rooms that were available. As we weren’t insured to take the cameras outside of the premises, we had to come up with ideas to overcome this problem by slightly changing the story. We got there in the end!
