I guess we are now slightly behind where we were supposed to be but I can get everything back on track soon enough.
Definitely filming next weekend, because for now I'm done with the footage I had to edit.

No filming for the moment!
Last week we could not film because I had prior commitments over the weekend and no one else could film.

Filming Pricilla's indoors scenes - CHECK
So last friday went quite smoothy and Akleia and I filmed Pricilla's scenes at a friend's house. We did so in the morning so the lighting and setting up was fantastic. I think we got all we needed.
Now to film Michael at Nathan's house on friday. Hopefully it all works out as smoothly as Pricilla's shoot!

Lets fix this production mess!
Tom cancelled on us AGAIN! we have concluded he is not very reliable, so today we sat together as a crew and decided to scrap Tom.
At first we though of just recasting the male protagonist still as a white boy, so we thought of Spike Lacey. But then since none of us really know him all that well we were scared of him also cancelling on us, and we really can't afford any more filming cancellations.
Then we discussed a potential story change or alteration. We would have to come up with a whole new story and concept and it would be very complicated with time running out as fast as it is.
Finally we came to a conclusion of simply recasting our male protagonist, but this time it would be a mixed race boy we know called Michael. He worked with us on the Britney Prelim task and he demonstrated his reliability then. He is also extremely good friends with Nathan which makes him our best option at the moment. However due to him not being the white boy we were looking for the racial contrast we wanted is now not going to be possible, so to enhance the contrast between the couple we have planned in detail the exact outfits they have to wear to portray the remaining strong contrast between their classes.
I am now filming Pricilla's indoor scenes on Friday after school and Nathan is filming the bus journey on Wednesday since he finishes early then. The remaining scene we'll be filming next Saturday when the crew is free again.
Hope this all works out perfectly now.
