Filming for Left Behind

The first clip we will need to film is the news report as this appears within the first 10 seconds of the trailer. We will need to film it before we film Millie and Estelle's parts as they watch the news report on the television. The news report will be filmed on the 6th December with Jack Warner as the reporter. It will be recorded on location as this will be simpler than making a classroom look like a studio/office. In The Girl on the Train there is a scene where news reporters are getting footage in the location where one of the main characters houses are; we took the on location filming idea from our research.

As Bryony is really busy we are struggling to find a date to film her characters parts with her. Consequently, we may need to cast someone new.

We were able to film Millie getting into bed and blowing out a candle. To ensure that the bedroom location wasn't too bright I closed the blind so there was minimal outside light. Also, I used a spotlight which was placed on the desk at the end of the bed. This added enough light to be able to record Millie clearly, but allowed her not to be completely obvious. This is the only part of the trailer that Millie appears in so we chose to film it as soon as we could. On the 6th of December we were able to film Millie Todd's parts and Jack Warner's parts as the news reporter.

We plan to film with Estelle and Bryony on Sunday 10th December.
