Todays shoot was a lot less organised than yesterdays, everyone seemed a little flustered, we didn't start until late and shooting the scene without Georgia changed the storyboards a little. We were also missing an actress to play Mrs Benson but the chaperone for the child actors stepped in. We mixed the schedule around because we were tight on time and one of the child actors had to go earlier than the other.
All of these little issues snowballed into a really difficult shoot, on reviewing the footage I'm not incredibly happy with what I shot but the setup time and badgering to be ready I had from the rest of crew as well as me having to be the person telling the actors what they were doing because Alex had no idea what shot we were on, it really wasn't a great shoot.
We also found out we couldn't shoot to the schedule we had planned. We wanted to shoot through four days over the weekend and into the half term holiday week. Unfortunately the kids agent didn't realise the two kids we worked with had different holidays to each other and our lead actor was back at school. At the moment I think we will shoot next weekend instead however I wont be able to make the sunday and will have to arrange a stand in.
