As groups, we were given a large planning sheet to help us separate the areas we need to look at. First of all we decided on the final Actors and Characters, as we couldn’t decide on the main woman ‘Grace’ and what was happening with the Directors. As it stands now, we filled in most of our Actors and Actresses:
Lord Thayne – Stephen Harrington
Grace – Leonie (Me)
Director One – Dave Green
Producer – Trina Abbott
Director Two – Jamie Clarke
Cameraman One – Ian Amos
Director Three – Darrill Lawrence
Makeup artist One – Sara Rudge
Makeup artist Two – Rebecca Stringer
Cameraman Two – Luke Keeble
Intern – Craig Woollard
In theory, we have all our cast members but we will need extras to fill in for ‘behind the scenes’. Grace has been filled in by me because of my past drama skills and it was easier for the group especially in learning the script. We have put the location as Chantry Park as it is across town but we will aim to shoot during the day as to lessen any disruptions, which would probably occur later on!

Next we have to finalise the date, as we will need to film all in one go, which will certainly be a challenge! The script is nearing completion and I will be writing more tonight so we are up to speed. It has been delayed because of a mix up on characters and changes made to the plotline. Other than that, everything is up to date and I am generally pleased with the group. We are all pleased at how much we have gotten sorted already, and all eager to film!
