Filming: day 1


Filming location: Bexleyheath Goals
Conveniently Kallum and Kaan knew of a location local to use that was perfect for our film. The location was a sports centre that consisted of mini football pitches. 


The boys went on Tuesday evening to film around 5pm. As it is winter I feared it may be too dark to film however the boys said they location had flood lights and they also changed the camera settings to make it brighter. The footage came out quite stylistically, creating a midnight blue type of colour scheme. Although it was not what we initially intended the lighting was no issue.

However Josh, Kallum's little brother who was cast to play younger Jack, was the only person in the frame along with another young boy who we cast to play the goalie. We decided this wasn't representative of the scenario we wanted to create as we wanted to show younger jack at football training with a bunch of other boys his age playing a match so we would then replicate this scene when jack is older and playing in a professional football match. 

We may still use the footage we collected, possibly to be used as little flashbacks clips but we will also go back to the location and cast about 8-10 other boys to be in this particular scene.
