So, this day was planned more for setting shit up, and making sure that everything was going to work for when we started, as the first location we were shooting in was all the way up in Cape Patterson. Overall, we spent a bit less time on the whole ‘planning’ process than I had hoped, because we got a little distracted by food (Pinos in Cowes has some bloody amazing pizza). But yeah, a lot of the time was spent driving from place to place, picking up the people who needed to be there for the planning process, and also to pick up food and stuff, and before we knew it, it was already dark outside. And so, the whole planning process which I originally had thought would be a long and focused procedure, essentially had to be crammed down into about half an hour.

In this half hour, we briefed over everything that needed to be briefed over, we just felt very rushed about it. We read over the script, paced it to how we wanted it as best we could, and discussed character movement and stance. We also attempted to plan out costuming, but as I said in a previous blog post, was a bit of a mess, due to time constraints and disagreements.

Overall, I’m just saying, I reckon we should’ve gotten shit done asap, as opposed to in the last half hour of the day.
