I did my shoot for wbl this morning and i think (hope) it went really well, Giles already had experience in front of a camera, having done things for the news before, and therefore had a good idea of what i needed from him in terms of positioning and where to look - ie, not at the camera.
i feel i got some good cutaways and did a couple of takes of each bit of him talking at different shot sizes so as to ensure i had enough material for the edit.
I had thought it might be a bit awkward directing someone that much older than me, but he was very easy to talk to and keen to make it as good as possible.
I'm looking forward to how it all comes out!
steve - where are you? what are you doing? have not seen you in at all and as far as i can tell you have not shot anything of your major project. your submission date is next week on thurs.
