Editing log

Dark filters will be added in post-production to make the film look darker

Location Recce

Location - 
Beverley Westwood
Bricknell Avenue

Lighting -
We will be using natural light

Camera Angles -
To film high angle shots we will have to climb in a tree or use step ladders

Sound - 
Due to the location being open, it is subject to high winds so the sound will be very bad. To get around this problem we will have to dub some of the sounds

Health and Safety issues -
Climbing trees to achieve high angle shots
The needles and knife will have to be monitored closely as they can cause unwanted attention as well as minor and major injuries should anything go wrong
