Updated Script

This is the updated script for the voicemail message at the beginning of our trailer that Alexia leaves for Arby. We intend to use this at the beginning of the trailer then edit lines so they are used as a voiceover throughout the rest of the trailer but will played in a random order:

"Hey...umm look I don't really know what to say...I have to leave. I have to go because...because everything I know is a lie. There are others...others like me. But we're not safe. I have to find them. I wish you could understand...I can't put you in danger anymore. I don't even know what's real...I don't know who I can trust but I need to find them. I need to find the others.

Day 2 Filming

Our second day of filming was slightly easier because the location we were filming in was closer to home. We filmed near our school so it was an easy meeting point for us and our actors. The first shots we filmed were in the woods by our school. As the weather hadn't been good throughout the day, we found a relatively dry area in the woods because we needed to film Mia running. We decided we wanted this as a long shot to include some of the setting showing a clear change in location, necessary in a trailer. As Mia wasn't wearing a coat in these shots we needed to film quickly because it was cold but this also meant that we could then move on to our next location fairly quickly.

The next shots we filmed on this day were at the viewpoint which were the scenes between Mia and Beth (playing Alexia and Kaya). We had originally intended to film this on the swings in the local park by our school however as there were other people in this location at the time we decided to film at viewpoint. We filmed the scene where Beth is talking to Mia however we also managed to get a few other shots of Mia, Beth and Bryn walking. We added these in to show the 'others' as this is important to our storyline. We also used Bryn because we felt it looked better by having another character to show there are more 'others' than simply Alexia and Kaya.
