Filming

On January 10th 2015 we carried out a day of filming on location in Tunbridge Wells. For our film, we need a large cast, mostly consisting of extras. This meant that we had to film all of the shots of the dead bodies on the floor on one day, to avoid continuity issues with some people being unable to attend the filming on multiple days. We arrived at the location in the morning and set up the filming area. The potential for different angled shots was restricted significantly due to modern technology and appliances in the room such as a television and gym equipment.

The only major issues we encountered were time constraints - as we had around 15 people to make up realistically, it took us longer than anticipated to prepare for and shoot the scenes. Another issue was making sure that we shot every scene we needed due to the relative inability to re-film shots with the same actors at a later date. We made a conscious effort to film all the footage and more than we needed of the extras as we were aware that it would be easier to re-film with a couple of actors as opposed to a large cast.
