Altered Filming Schedule

Due to the fact I have decided to alter my idea, I have therefore had to change my filming schedule and film some of the shots again but from different angles and perspectives. By planning out a new schedule I will be able to look at how my filming is coming along and it will allow for me to see where I can fit other filming dates in should I need them.

Ideally, all the production should have been finished before the February half term which is around the same time as Valentine's Day (14th) but due to other commitments I have been unable to finish the required filming. Therefore I will be filming very often in the half term as this is convenient form both me and the actress I am using.

I have already got some shots regarding the scene with the girl in her room but I will not be able to finish this scene without filming the others first so I will leave that filming until the end. I also do not want to try and film it all in one day as this would be too difficult and I want to make it seem like the different scenes are all filmed on different days to represent different memories. By filming on different days, I will be able to make it seem like time has past by using things such as different weather conditions, the characters wearing different clothing and other alterations. A brief outline of my altered production planning will follow:

Monday 16th February - I want to try and film the first scene all within this day. I will be filming in the centre of Oxford and will act it out in the same fashion as a first date. It will be from the guy's point of view and it will show the two characters meeting, walking around for a bit, possibly sitting in a restaurant or a cafe, then it will show the guy walking the girl home and them saying good bye before the next clip occurs.

Thursday 19th February - This will be the second scene filming. The second scene will show the characters as more comfortable with one another and this will make the characters seem more fluid in their movements and how they act with one another. It will be either in University Parks in Oxford or it will be like the two characters going for a "day out" together and having fun. The reasoning for leaving a gap is so that I can attend any other commitments I have but also so that I can see how the weather conditions may alter and so that I can change the clothing of the actress to make it seem like it is more further on in time.

Friday 20th/Saturday 21st February - This may take me one or two days to complete as I am planning on filming the rest of the scenes in the house and also the final scene which includes shooting from the guys point of view. I have left this to last as both of these scenes occur on the same day and therefore I want to try and ensure continuity is kept as well as the fact I can't shoot any more of the scenes in the house without having the other bits of filming done first. I may need to film the remaining house scenes on another day because I may have to do some more editing before these can be completed.
