Auditorium

On the 9th of February, Rosie and I filmed the scenes of the video that took place in the auditorium.

We filmed scenes of the full front row of the auditorium, with one person at a time leaving, so we could have the progressive emptying of the seats.

We also filmed one person in many random seats, in case we could find use of a single person being left in the auditorium.

We need to book another day in the auditorium, to film the band and instruments on the stage.

Permissions

We are still currently looking into getting permissions for the beaches, the auditorium and the arcades.

We have been having trouble contacting people, due to incorrect email addresses and lack of communication on both the council and producer's parts.
