PRODUCTION SCHEDULE

The trailer "Countdown", is located in Liverpool street.There were several delays on being able to film due to the availability of the cameras and poor weather conditions. Unfortunately, it began to snow as we were filming on the 16th of December. This had caused difficulties in filming with still focus and filming the panning shots due to the extreme poor weather conditions.There may have also been a loss of resolution due to the wind and snow.This had effected the quality of the images needed for the poster and magazine cover but it was overcome due to Photoshop editing.

The photograph shot below was ideally meant to be for the magazine poster, however the lense could not capture a high resolution image due to snow and wind.


















Moreover, we did not film certain shots that were in the story board such as shots inside Liverpool street station due to legal reasons, as it was not allowed. An external phone booth outside the station was used instead. There were also various running shots involving areas such as a ramp, but the snow had caused it to be too dangerous. Alternately a running shot underneath a building was used.



Earlier shots of Mahfuza were filmed as a second character starring in the trailer. It had been decided that two characters can build more suspense by showing there is more than one person in danger.
