Reshoot Day 2 (Recap)

Today we went back to the Windsor Great Park to re film a couple of unsuccessful shots. After reviewing the previous day's footage of the opening scene, some of the shots either looked unnatural (e.g a shot of Jamal jumping over a pole) or it just didn't fit the feel we were going for. We also came up with a few more ideas for alternative shots while discussing the day on Whatsapp the night before.


We then drove over to Stoke Poges, a remote rural town next to Slough, which as you can see from the Google Maps picture above took around 30 mins to get to. We also ran into some navigational issues on the way and we somehow managed to enter Pinewood Studios!

One hour later we finally arrived where we wanted to be. The quiet windy roads allows us to obtain a variety of interesting shots depicting us as we escaped from the heist.


We then filmed the drop off point where the robbers get out the car and walk into there hide out. In the previous test shoots we instinctively pulled up outside the house, however our audience feedback revealed that the residential environment surrounding the location didn't fit the rest of the film. We feel this new drop off point makes for a more suitable environment to exit the car. The picture bellow shows the area we decided on.
