Last minute changes

Not long before filming, we decided to tweak a few things. First of all, one major problem was the weather and we did not want to risk anything, living in harsh weather conditions during this time of winter. We were originally supposed to be shooting in the park, where the grass can get damp and squelchy and on a Sunday, many mothers bring their young children there to play. As it was a risk of us facing these obstacles, we decided to shoot in the garden of my house where I have a wooden deck outside so that we wouldn't have challenges such as mud and so that we could sit inside when having a break or if it started raining heavily, we could resort to the inside of my house. Another last minute change was parts of the script; one of the actors, played by my father realised that some of the lines sounded unnatural and so with his advice, we cut out and changed a few words. Lastly, we changed some of the shots as we couldn't take the same ones in a different location and there were problems with the reflection of the camera from the window, so some angles and shots were altered.
