Here we go again

Trucks outside Film City Glasgow

We're at it again. The trucks are here, the gear's being unloaded, the smell of bacon rolls, spray paint and dust fills the air.

It's great to be shooting again, this is my favourite part.

Giles and David in the treehouse

Our first task is to shoot some scenes in the treehouse. As we've explained in the last few posts these are to enhance a section of the film that could do with a bit more emphasis. The film currently flies along at quite a pace and there is one aspect of it that could do with being brought out a bit, heightened for the audience. You'll have to try and guess what I'm talking about when you see the movie!

Reference station

This is a laptop we've set up so that we can compare what we're shooting to the shots already in the movie. This will ensure continuity across all the different areas: costume, make-up, props and aspects of the lighting.

The set

Here's a nugget for the boffins. I asked Giles about the colour of the light in the room, for those of you interested in lighting the reason everything is so yellow/orange in the studio is not because of sodium lights. The room is actually lit with fluorescent lights but they are bouncing off an orange ceiling, which you can't really see in the photos.
