Preparation for the shoot.

Lauren and I met with Mr Hitchenson the music teacher to arrange plans to borrow instruments to use on October 16th.
I spoke to Mr Lee about the possible use of the school theatre on the day of the shoot.
Lauren began to echange e-mails with Mr Lee and Mr Nugent to confirm the use of the school. However, as the school is very packed with out of curriculum courses on Saturdays we have to use the Drama Pod inseatd of the Theatre as previously planned.
As the date and location of the shoot is confirmed, we decided to send a message to the memember of our facebook event to confirm or deny their place so we have an idea of numbers.
Laurena nd I went to buy the decorations for the shoot, which included streamers, party, poppers, balloons etc.
Tuann, Lauren and I stayed behind after school to make banners, posters and confetti.
Lauren had arranged to borrow some 50's clothing from our Media teacher and collected it later that day.

On the day of the shoot, Lauren and I and a couple of friends met at the school at 1.45pm to decorate the Drama Pod, blow up the ballons which would be used later and set up the instruments for the band.
The actors arrived at 2:30pm and began to change and have their hair and make-up done.
Snacks and Drinks were provided thanks to Lauren.
Filming started at 4:30pm and we finished at 6:00pm.
We then had to tidy up the Drama Pod and leave it as we had found it.

The shoot went very well and we had more than enough footage than we needed.
