Re-shoot

When we reshoot we will change how we planned our first shoot of the boys due to over complications.

We are going to film on a small road in Highate rather than the alley way in Golders Green however the audience will not be aware of the change in location as we will edit it creating continuity 'cheating' so it appears to be the alley way.

The main reason we have decided to change location is due to lighting within the alley way. It is not bright enough and we don't get enough light purely from the street lights and from the reflection off the cars so hopefully in the alleyway there will be brighter lights and clearer skies above so there should be more natural light aswell as light from the street lamps.

At the moment I am not sure if our cast will remain the same as some of the original cast may not be able to come to the filming because of rugby and school activities. This means I may have to compromise and use a different three boys. The benefit with our previous shots are that they are so dark you cannot see the boys properly so I will be able to cut clips together. Props and costumes will remain the same however there may not be a bike as it was one of the issues previously and filming it was too hard because it moved to fast for the camera to keep up with steadily and doesn't look very good when moving slowly. We hope to achieve the same stereotypical view of the hoodies as we originally wanted to, hopefully this time the lighting will allow us to see them.

Lastly there is a noise issue. Although we don't use much dialogue at all in the film and only one line of dialogue would be used with the hoodies there is too much street noise to give the audience a feel of where they are. It is also in a quieter location so we will have less trouble with people walking in the way of our shots or getting angry as we had previously been preventing them from parking.
