One shot....back off set & ready to edit

Well well well...........after a bit of a crazy day and a slow start things started to gather pace as the day went on. We arrived at our chosen location around 2pm ready to rock and roll with all the equipment required. After around 2 hours of swapping and changing we finally got the set ready for action. We carried out a few off camera rehearsals to make sure the script was right and away we went. To be honest we did really well there was 2 occasions were we had to re-start but on the third take those in shot Will and Olivia nailed it! It was just right and good thing too because by this stage we had about 40minutes to get packed up and return the camera. It was our own fault in reality because we had spent several hours preparing the set adjusting the lighting, getting the camera angle just right not to mention the lift door didnt want to stay open for the full duration of filming but not even a brief visit from security stopped us.......thanks by the way to the security guys for there understanding!!! Attempting to get the lighting right was probably the biggest challenge for us. If you havent tried it already lifts are pretty tricky to light in a suitable manner for filming but we managed it in the end after several bits of tweaking we even involved borrowing a couple of lamps in the process.
