Overcoming The Barriers Of Production.

As we didn't have a massive multi-million pound budget to make extravagant sets or employe top actors we had to use of initative and creativity. For our sets and location we made the most of what was at hand, which was one of our friend's houses and as it was Sams house he was at hand to star as our main charcter. This proved very effective as he was friends with all the girls we used, so it helped to battle any arkwardnes and created good chemistry on set. The time we had was ample for filming,it was only when we got back into the editing studio and realised we may need to re-film some of the shots that we felt time was against us. In the end though we were able to make it look effective. The technology we had at hand was a hand held camera and a tripod, but these both prove sufficient with a certain degree of waiting to get the right shot, the only worry we had is that the battery ran flat over a weekend but we were able to attain a new one from college, we also made the most of the natural night provided by the double doors leading to his garden with only minimal control over this variable i think we picked a perfect time to film.
