It seems as though we really are finally ready to shoot, we've completed pretty much all we need to before shooting...:
- Setting
- Locations
- Actors
- Train Times
- Storyboard
- Shot List
- Permissions
- Costumes
- dIALOGUE
so.. pretty much all ready for MONDAY.. :D
We aim to shoot at thurston station for about an hour befroe our train arrives at half 10(ish) and then stay in norwich until around 5pm! This should give us plenty of time to get all the shots we need and more!! Woo!
We only need to do 2 more things...
- Get the camera from school
- SHOOT!
END.

Little update
We are just confirming that CAMERON is our antagonist.
we dont need anymore, which saves him £10 in transport i guess.
We haven't had any luck with the police, so we are just going to go for it.
GROUP INFO -
we are meeting at Josh's house as soon as school buses get in, so 9.15 is the maximum. You need at least £10 for train transport and probably money for lunch - see you all then
jebosh over n out.

RIGHT.....
In the last few installments we have made some dramatic changes to our piece, changing the plot, location and actors. I just going to sum it all up for us. Because readijng back, seems a little confusing..
OK, so:
We are filming in Thurston, Stowmarket, and Norwich train stations, the fact that the train we need to catch goes through all of these.
We are not using Will, I asked him, and he has other media commitments to attend to which is fine. I rang my friend Martin, who is at the local college (WSC), who is doing a media course, as well as being a former media classmate of Jeb and myself. He is able to act for us which is great, but he tends to be quite funny, so maybe if we want a serious clip, we'll have to consider his role. I also rung my friend Cameron, who is in a different sixth form doing a similiar media course. If you want to see his blog for his film click here. Anyway, he looks a lot more like what me and the boys imagined our main character to be, and, probably would take this role seriously, which is excellent. So, concluding our characters, we have two candidates for the main role, and we can incorp' the other in the piece.
In terms of costumes, we have asked both Martin and Cam to bring various items of clothing, and we'll bring a notepad on the day, so we can write down exactly what they were wearing, keeping the continuity of the film, uh... continual. We are planning on using on of those russian hats and some smart/casual clothes.
We are OFFICIALLY FILMING on the 19th of January - which is a MONDAY. meaing that we need signatures from both parents and teachers.
As long as my camera is the right format, then we will be taking two cameras, to conserve time and make that time efficient in the amount of shots we do.
Well, that's it for now, we'll keep you updated on any minor changes, but besides that - THE CHANGES ARE MADE, NO RETURN.
P.s. We are having a little trouble contacting the police about filming on the train and train station. So.. if we can't get through soon we may just have to take the risk of having to explain ourselves - nothing big.

josh love ladies
so our idea (in final?) is to have Will (josh has go to ask him yet) he will be on a train going to a "meeting"... there will be losts of creepy shots of his face, and POV shots of will. what we intend to do is to record a conversation going on between a psychiatrist and a doctor, and they will be disscusing Will. We will take the audio from this conversation and super-impose it on the "train footage". we have also flirted with the idea of having "gruesomely suspicious" flashbacks, maybe child abuse? or early cannabalism? oh yah i forgot to say, that Will is a cannible... we will make this aparant by the use of dialogue coming fromt teh voice over. and, if we ACTULARY do have some "super freeky" jump cut/flashback/montages then...possibly you will see some weird stuff.

So this is Norwich train station, when its empty. will hopefully be a bit busier when we go there to create a rushed and lost feeling!! but yeah, just a teaser of what to expect in our fina piece :D Looks pretty small in this pocture but its actully pretty big in real life! Hopefully we can get some good tracking shots and POV shots to create the rushed sense!! Byeee x

Final Ideas?!
We are no longer going to London, weve decided that Norwich can fulfill our needs just as well!
So hopefully will be shooting on 12th January, if we sort everything out!
We have a storyboard as well now so have a pretty good idea of where we need to go in Norwich and what kind of shots we will need! :D Still thinking of using Bamber however, possibly the only thing that has stayed the same from the start?!
Hopefully the train journey to Norwich will give us enough time to shoot our first few shots (which obviously are on a train), and if not the we always have the way back!!
