First day of filming

November 16th

I did my first bit of filming and collected all of my actors together at my house and filmed the second half of the film along with the outside scenes as I wasn't sure how the weather would change during the christmas period.
I made sure I had all my props including the blood, Damiens knife and bag etc, and starting in my house I managed to get them in their costumes within 15 minutes. As I had fake blood and it needed to be on the laminate floor, I had to do a quick test with a little blob on the floor to make sure it wouldn't stain and once I know it wouldnt make a mark I began putting it on Holly(Bethany)'s arm and on the floor to create the illusioon that its been dripping on the floor. I also placed the blood on George(Damien)'s shirt. To make this more realistic, I put alot of blood on my hands and grabbed his shirt in places where I may grab if someone was attacking me.
Filming went really well and we managed to get all my shots needed, both inside and outside the house. All the shots also linked really well with each other except in one shot where George(Damien) was holding the pictures of Bethany however in the one particular shot he wasn't holding it so when I film the first half I am going to have re-shoot it so that he has the pictures as to keep the continuty strong.
