Weather Issues during our Second Day of Filming

Upon the disappointment of being unable to film over the weekend, we were all eager to get back on track and finish the filming issues. At first glance of the field we noticed a worst case scenario. The snow had melted. We immediately began discussing how we could over come this, coming up with suggestions and alternative endings to make sense of the disappearance of the snow. When we finally came up with an ending as shocking as the last we felt it necessary to begin filming although the lighting was quickly running low.

We used as much snow as we could in the first shot of the day a it slowly began to thin out into the green grass my character became more aware of the disappearance of it as I proceed my walking. Upon Jack and I editing this shot we were extremely pleased with it's outcome and felt that it worked extremely well with the ending - which makes everything clear - and yet not make the audience wonder if it was intentional or not. However, upon further viewing Jack and I had to admit that the shots didn't flow well enough, the change from snow to grass was far too sudden and seemed extremely unprofessional. Harvey mentioned that on Thursday we are expected to have snow once more.

I took notice of this and decided to check out what the 5 day forecast was for this week and can confirm that what Harvey heard was correct. Upon discussion on MSN with Harvey and Jack we decided that perhaps it's best to film on Thursday, to ensure our film is the best it can be. However, the filming that commenced today was not all worthless, we came up with some shots we are eager to repeat and look forward to doing them much better a second time round, Jack was also able to test out an editing technique we have all been dying to perform which we feel could turn out extremely well.
