Two good shoots then mine....

Several members of the Lancaster film Co op were present at Cec's film shoot last Sunday, taking up roles as sound engineers / boom operators / actors / actresses  and extras. (Information about the story etc has not been made public domain yet) The day went well but we were unable to complete the shoot due to time constraints.  Such is life.

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday saw Ray operating the camera for a short film he had written. Acting was David Dale and Louise Geatch both from the Lancaster film Co op and also me and Ian doing the wrangling.

The location was Heysham Head and the weather was perfect, providing us with a magnificent view across the bay and 2 great sunsets.
A big thanks to St Peter's church at Heysham Head for allowing us to film there.
Furious editing is now taking place to try and get the film ready for the Made in Lancaster Festival at the Dukes in the second week of June. (good luck with that then).

My shoot which should have been tomorrow at Bassenthwaite lake has been cancelled due to a bad weather forecast and players pulling out. Hey Ho. Even more frustrating considering I was at the lake today doing a reccy and the weather was fine. Typical.
But the scheduled shoot at the cafe tomorrow will go ahead as planned so not everything is lost.
We are going to shoot a short comedy sketch (a few mins) with some resemblance of an idea and hopefully some improv.  All a bit experimental and it could go tits up. But if you don't try....
