The Film

I'm pretty satisfied with our filming so far. I think time has been the biggest issue for us. We all have so many activities and things on on weekends and after school that it's so hard to fit it all in but we will finish the rest of the film in the holidays :) We still have plenty to work on until then. I think we have managed the time we've had very effectively we did A LOT of filming in one, short, windy afternoon. If we have time in the holidays I would like to redo the park scene as I have some new ideas for how we could do it and where. Im really excited to see how it will all turn out.
