Filming Day 4 - 02/12/2012

2nd December 2012: 7pm - Late
Crew: Myself, Leon, Hannah B, Jen and Jacob

  On December 2nd, I met Fiona at the train station after I had finished work, before making out way to Bramall Lane in Sheffield to film the car scene. This night of filming was particularly cold and I really wanted everything to run smoothly to avoid staying outside any longer than we needed to. Thankfully, all the crew worked really well.
Lola's reaction to the bright headlights and beeping horn
  Because the shot demonstrates Lola as she walks into the road without looking just as a car heads towards her, we had to be careful that none of the crew would be in shot. As well as this, I needed to stand on the corner between the car and Lola in order to shout to Hannah (who was driving) when to start. We had to do a couple of takes just to get the timing right but I think we got a good one eventually. We also shot a nice sequence from within the car, which gave a good view of Lola's expressions.
  After viewing this sequence within the film as a whole, I had reservations that it did immediately go right into the action, however, it does show that she jumps straight into the deep end and doesn't realise how scary the outside world can be from the start.
