We went to Brent Cross today to film them celebrating with the money from the blackmail. We didn't manage to get the shots we wanted due to security being so tight at Brent Cross and because we didn't plan in advance with the security that we were going to film there. We didn't speak to any security before filming just incase we weren't allowed but we took the shots outside just to avoid any disturbance to anyone shopping. We also had the idea to add Snapchat videos from the couple to make the scene look a bit different, however we didn't realise that because we were filming portrait that it wouldn't look good when added on to photoshop, so we didn't use the footage.

We were so lucky to get the opportunity to film with the police car, thanks to the school police officer we got access to it. It added a lot to our trailer and makes it stand out quite a lot, and also made the interrogation scene look more realistic as real police officers and equipment was used.
However, when filming the police van scene, the only difficulty was trying to not include the schools sign outside the building, and we didn't want to waste too much of the officers time because they were still on duty. At first we filmed at one angle where you could see the sign of we didn't time it right, then we moved to other side where the sign wasn't visible. In the end we used the footage where the sign wasn't visible as it turned out better than the other clips. (Overall, we were happy with the shots when watching the clips back quickly.)
Today we filmed in Holiday Inn, the seduction scene between Calvin and Rebecca.
We were only giving an hour
These are the scenes where Calvin and Rebecca are putting in/taking out the money from the safety deposit box.
We tried to get a range of different shots during this shoot, including a short tracking shot of the money going into the locker and a view from inside the locker as well.
Me and Julia went to the Sky Garden, in Bank to film an establishing shot of London. Unfortunately we weren't allowed to use the Tripod on the terrace, but we risked it and managed to get a decent shot, without opening the legs of the tripod.
Today we printed out sheets of money that we would be using in the bedroom when the girls are celebrating. We wanted to make sure we got a close up of the money so we took our time order for them to be straight and neat. The only problem we realised we had was after printing when we saw that the twenty pound note was the same size as the ten pound note, so it didn't look as realistic, but when filming, we found a way to hide the mistake so it wasn't as noticeable. We filmed quite a few shots/scenes, but they didn't turn out the way we planned so we're most likely going to re-film many shots from this day.
