More Filming

This evening we managed to film more of our footage. We filmed a shot of Jane (the wife) closing a door and one of her and rob (the husband) on peoples shoulders running along to look like they were on horses. I was a bit worried about how this would all work out and one of the people that was meant to carry them pulled out so we had to find someone else at the last minute. However everyone co-operated well and was very helpful. We managed to get it done before it got dark. We had a slight problem in that it was rainy however it was only drizzle and this was solved by holding an umbrella over the camera so no rain got on the screen and by making the ''horses'' run on the path so they didnt slip in the mud. The two people carrying Jane and Rob (the ''horses'') were extreamly willing to help and do whatever we told them. This helped a great deal as they were able to jog along bouncing slightly so it looked like the actors were on a real horse. One of them (the ones carrying them) even made horse noises to ''try and get into his role''. It worked far better than i thought it woiuld, we were not able to get many takes as the ''horses' were getting worn out and the light was fading but i'm fairly confident we got all that we needed to. Here are some photos of us filming:
