1st Day of Re-shoots (Late to School)

We began our reshoots by filming the sequence that taken place as the character 'Joseph' is at school and is late for his lesson. 

This shoot was successful as we had learnt from our time shooting this sequence before ; we were aware of what needed to be improved from this sequence and we also knew how we intended on capturing the dialogue between Joseph and his classmate.

This additional interaction has extended the duration of the scene within the school; this is why we had previously decided to remove the additional shot of Joseph walking through the corridor as it had taken 8 seconds of screen time which now has been filled with this dialogue sequence.

Only minor issue with today's shoot was that fellow crew member 'Ashley Banger' who played the classmate interacting with Joseph; despite the reminders in advance, Ashley had forgotten to wear the required clothing that he wore in the previous edit, ultimately causing us to prolong the shoot more than scheduled. We had to unnecessarily re-shoot filler shots of the two actors which we intended on re-using from the 1st draft but due to the actor's change of clothing would have jeopardised the continuity of the project. Despite that issue, as we adapted to this unfortunate hiccup and finished with enough time at the end of the shoot to glance at the footage and was certainly satisfied.
