3-12-14 Production Diary

On this day we had to get film the classroom scene, however it proved to be rather problematic as we soon discovered that when filming a classroom full of year sevens not only can it be quite hard to manage, but we had to ensure that no child's full face featured in our trailer as that would mean seeking permission of not only them but their parents.

First of all we found a classroom which was suitable and after seeking the teachers permission to film, we began. The first challenge when filming was trying to calm the children down in order to ensure they didn't drown out Rosie's voice, we found the children to be extremely co-operative and spoke/kept quiet when necessary.

We then had to shoot from a few different angles to decide on the right one, we eventually agreed that a long shot was more suitable as it establishes the setting and we can really get an insight into Rosie's everyday life and therefore her caring nature.




 Overall I am extremely pleased with the scenes we shot on this day and I thought that the part where Rosie rights the title on the board is extremely effective and creates continuity by linking the text to the trailer.
