Location: Southborough (Near to the Sports Center)
Group Members Present: Joseph Dunkerley and Joseph Inns
Additional People Present: Alex Fox (Actor) and Stanley Pugh (Actor)
Scenes Shot: Fight Scenes, Additional Chase Scene, Meeting Scene, Stairway Scene
The fifth session was filmed in Southborough at locations close to the school. The primary objective of this session was to get additional shots that we felt we still needed. This was because the majority of the footage needed for the trailer had already been obtained. We were able to film a selection of short clips that would add to excitement of the trailer and would allow us to do more believable montage scenes in time with the music.

Filming Session 4
Location: Southborough (St Gregory's Catholic Comprehensive School)
Group Members Present: Joseph Dunkerley, Joseph Inns and Tom Nelson
Additional People Present: Kieran Brown (Camera Man), Dominic Williams (Actor), Stanley Pugh (Actor), Alex Fox (Actor), Christian Turner (Actor) and Micah Hills (Actor)
Scenes Shot: Poker Scenes, Fight Scenes, Chase Scene
The fourth filming session was done at St Gregory’s Catholic Comprehensive School in Southborough. Due to the session being done in school, we were able to obtain a large amount of addition actors for our scenes. We used the school’s stage as it provided an ideal location for fight scenes and the poker scene. In addition to this, we were able to film the scenes in a matter than would not lead people to believe that they had been shot in a school. One of the most positive factors of this session was that we had access to mats and cushions thus allowing us to explore a greater range of fighting styles for our fight scenes without people getting injured. The stage’s lights also allowed us to toggle the lighting of the scenes at will.

The third filming session was done in Tunbridge Wells. All of the group members were present for this session as well as an addition actor and an extra camera man. We had a limited amount of time in this session due to peoples other arrangements. However we were able to film a lot of important scenes in the short amount of time due to effective planning and good coordination. The location we were filming at was ideal as it contained a lot of unique looking locations within a short area of space. The most important scenes filmed in this session were the chase scenes and conflicts between Jason Dyer and Sam Williams.

Filming Session 1
Location: Pembury
Group Members Present: Joseph Dunkerley and Tom Nelson
Additional People Present: None
Scenes Shot: Church Scene, Bridge Scene, Telephone Scene, Path Scene, Attacking Unseen Person Scene
The first filming session was done in Pembury. The members of the group that were present were Tom Nelson and I. In this session we primarily filmed shots of the main character in situations where he was alone. This was due to the limitations of only having two group members present. I was on camera duty and Tom had the responsibility of acting. Despite the limitations we were able to get some fantastic shots such as the church scene, bridge scene and path scene done. We will be able to edit the footage in a fast paced manner to show both the singularity of the character Jason Dyer (e.g. via the church scene) and scenes where he is interacting with others.
