Saving our skin

I was a bit aprehensive at first, being on my own i was unsure that i could direct, film and instruct my mom all at the same time.
Despite my queries however it went pretty smoothly, the weather seemed to hold up, at least the period we needed and Rosa was prepared and granted was a lot of help by learning her lines. Having got the 47 secs we had on the storyboard in no time i thought it a good idea to get a little extra...be it a pedalling of the bike or an extreme close up of the newspaper flying throught the air.
I did face difficulties however for example the cycling of the bike pedals as in it was physically hard to film while she was moving. Determined not to go back and let Becy and Sophie down though i worked it out and resulted in lying half out of the back of the car, sweating out my own body weight, holding the tripod and camera to get just the right shot.
All in all the filming went really well though and we completed the film in plenty (a day) of time. Each of us think it will score highly. Hopefully.
