On the 17th of November I went out and filmed a few more sequences for my trailer. As the other actors involved in the film had prior commitment they were unable to film on this date, so I decided to film more of the ‘Kev’ character. This involved him running away from and unseen threat and a short smoking sequence.
When doing this sequence we were shooting at about 3pm. This meant that the sun was going down and effected the direction in which we could film in. when setting up the shot we had to make sure that the shadow of the cameraman could not be seen. Another problem that we ran into as the amount of takes and variations that we had/wanted to do in the smoking scene, this meant that the cigarette was burning too quickly when we were waiting to set up the different shots, so we had to use about 4 or 5 full cigarettes in a very short space of time.
My lungs felt like they had gone through a cheese grater.
