Film Schedule

A filming schedule is important to have since it helps us move through our process efficiently without wasting time on random shots that aren't going to be used in the final cut or  don't need to be as time consuming as they're turning out to be. Also, it helps us work effectively since it lays out what shot we're meant to be shooting and when, this way we can get as many shots done as possible without missing any out and having to backtrack into another day to film that one frame or shot which will then lead to further problems with continuity ending and so forth. Not only does it help with the actual shots but it reminds us of the equipment we need and the iconography as well as costumes so that we can gather everything and bring it prior to leaving to travel to our filming location. Overall a filming schedule will help encourage us to move through the process efficiently and more organized, knowing what we need and don't need at certain times. 

Did you follow the schedule while filming, or did you make any changes?

When we physically went out filming, we stuck to the basic formation of shooting our shots (filming the London scenes first and the Debden fields second) but we didn't managed to film all in one day due to season difficulties. Since it's Winter and it gets much darker quicker, when we finally arrived from filming in London it was far too dark to film and pick up any decent footage on camera so therefore we had to divert it to a few days afterwards when the weather was suitable along with the light. Other than that the sequence of the way we filmed out shots were the way they appear on the shot list and it had the benefits to my group that I expected it to have.
