Second Shoot: Eleven

Saturday

A week later we shot all the footage with Blake and Sophie (The piano teacher). Once again we arrived at our location two hours early to set up and discuss shots. When our actors arrived we sat down and talked about their intentions and style that we wanted in their performance. We shot at my house to contrast from the family home at last weeks shot. We wanted Sophie's house to have a less modern feel to it. Most of our shots were Blake and Sophie at the piano making it easier for us to have a variety of artistic shots.

Sunday

On sunday we filmed exterior shots for the whole day. Fortunately the weather was very good which was brilliant for our shoot. We shot all the car shots with Blake and his father and the trampoline shots with Blake and Tom. It was a very cold day which meant we wanted to finish as early as possible. We started early and aimed to pack up before the light started to fade. Overall it was a successful weekend shoot. We now have one day left of Eleven which will also be an exterior shoot.
