Filming: Shoot Five

Our final shoot was at Music 47, for the scene where the band members walk in, take their instruments and walk out leaving a bemused shop keeper and customer. Although this also required most instruments and all actors, it was surprisingly easy to organise logistically seeing as most actors were local. During this shoot we asked the shop keeper on site to briefly act for us, and fortunately she agreed with an extreme 'method acting' approach. During the first take of her shouting after the band members as they walked out, she chased after them and dragged them back in to our amusement/shock, resulting in the current customers thinking we were actually stealing equipment (making a set of highly amusing anecdotes). After we asked her to tone down her style we recorded some very useful shots, again using our annotated script as reference.
