Filming: Day Four

My extras came to my house around 11:15. Erin, Aiden, Zoe, Matt, Kellie, Kim and I walked from my house to the park, and my mum drove all the equipment down to the location.
We spent about an hour setting up tents, props and the camera and then finally began shooting.
It was a little difficult to make the extras act, most of them were put off by the fact that there wouldn't be any audio and so started miming bizarrely. It took a bit of directing to get what I wanted, but I got the shots in the end.
I shot the scenes of the arguments between the volunteer (Erin) and a refugee (Aiden) and the parts where the whole group argues with Erin before escaping.
After we finished the camp scenes, we packed up and I filmed a shot of Matt running in front of a wall covered in graffiti just beside the park.
We finished the filming at about 3pm, and then went back to my house for lunch and to relax after four solid days of filming.
