Group Six: Stupid Pictures and Practice Runs

On our first day of shooting we ran into some trouble with the rain, wind and snow...The footage we had collected had been overrun with the sound of rain and traffic on wet roads, laughing from umbrellas flying away and frozen hands while filming. After some takes in these conditions we decided to film the next day when the weather would hopefully be better.

Here is an image of Lorna (Precious the Rebel) and Tosin (Coco the Otaku) standing filming in the rain outside of St. Martin's laughing at Pricilla's (Nicolla) umbrella inside out during a take.

Here is a clip of Nicolla the Loner (Priscilla) and her friend Grace (Sharifa) practising the second scene in our film opening. In this scene Nicolla is walking down to School and her friend Grace sees her. Grace talks to her about being more open and becoming friends with more people in school which leaves Nicolla feeling upset. We decided to practise this scene inside due to the heavy rain.

On our second day of filming the weather seemed better so we re-filmed the Grace and Nicolla scene and continued down into the Sixth Form (St. Martins).

Here is a clip of Cynthia the Geek (Stella) performing a few practise takes of her 'clumsy' door scene.

We also filmed Coco the Otaku (Tosin) and Tuesday the Misfit (Amina) fight scene as well as the detention/late scene where all of the main characters 'meet'.

Below is an image showing the location for the detention/late scene.
