We were now ready to go with the first shoot i had told the actors in advance the shooting dates, they all showed up on time except from one which was replaced with one of the extras "Alan Parry" at last minute. The extras were all ready to go so we got in and set up as fast as possible remembering where we had the equipment set. So now we started filling up the props with popcorn and filling the cups with soda, whilst we finished off the rest of the prepping.
Once set up we were ready to go, so i got myself ready with the production log and timer, and we began almost on time. we did the first shot with a few hiccups, like the ND filter being on which we did spot luckily enough before the next shot, the rest of the shots went fairly well except one of the red heads blew during the shoot in which we had to quickly replace the light, so we let the actors go for a quick break and tried to fix the issues at hand.
We got the replacement light in a hurry and set back up as fast as possible, the extras and actors started to come back and we placed them back in there seats taking photos of where they were sat before hand just in case any body forgot.
Other then them two issues the shoot went rather well and we almost got all the shots needed but one of the actors had to leave slightly earlier than the rest, and we wre running out of time and still needed time for packing up. so we called it a day and left the final shots of the main section of the advert like close ups etc.
I was happy with the way the shoot went the actors were mostly great except from a few extras being a slight distraction. so we only had to move onto the final shots of the advert and put together a pack shot.
