Today we had our test filming day which will hopefully prepare us for when we begin our actual filming. What we can plan for today is what parts of the theatre we want to feature in our trailer. Unfortunately we can’t feature everywhere as it is a big venue.
I met the team: Eleanor Wemyss, Jemma Green, Amos Mukombero, Callan Riches, Hayley Newell, Poppy Currie at the front of The Kings Theatre on Albert Road in Southsea at 9am. From there we went to one of the meeting rooms where we could brief the team on today’s events so that everyone knew what they were doing and when.
We then followed the storyboard and attempted to re-tell it live using the theatre.
I think today was useful as we found a place where we would the box with the Shakespeare plays in and we also could take pictures for the risk assessments. We were also able to get clear establishing shots which will mean we wont have to waste time on actual film days.
