Production Shoot: 07/10/12

We filmed on the moors in Whitworth to get some establishing shots done hoping that if we film in the morning there wouldn’t be that many people around as well as the fact that it is a wide open area would make it look more barren. We got some extreme long shots done to create more atmosphere to set the scene for the film.

I was fulfilling my part as the war veteran in this part of the film, with me and Tom in shots looking like we're travelling and on a journey to the border, therefore allowing our escape from the government. I also had a part in the filming and setting up of the camera as we were, in some cases, filming from high hills quite far away; this meant of course that the framing must be spot on. We all had to work together to achieve this.
