I’ve decided to take a different approach with the way I conduct my test shoots and formal shoots. Instead of filming a whole bunch of tests I will film a test and then the real shoot consecutively (i.e. over two days) so that I have more control over whats happening and get one whole shoot done at a time. This weekend I will conduct the shoot for the Empty Room Scene. I’ve borrowed a camera and a wireless lapel mic in order to execute the shots.

I’ve decided to incorporate some dialogue in the scene order to give it some context and perhaps make it more interesting. It show an alternate way in which we communicate with out phones and this hopefully with assist with the way in which I edit the test shoot, in order to make it flow.

Below is the script:

• Update: I didn’t end up filming this test shoot first as I had problems with getting the actor on that weekend. I ended up test shooting a few different scenes instead (see further blog posts)
