PLANNING: Changes and Updates, New Shooting Schedule

Recently, a large problem was encountered within our filming project. Where we thought we had found reliable actors, unfortunate circumstances led to each of them deciding they were unable to continue with filming in time for the scheduled shoots.
The last-minute nature of their cancellations meant that we were thrown in at the deep end, and had to reschedule a few shoot-dates, change the plot of our film a lot and find new actors, all at the last minute.

Thankfully, we worked hard to make these changes and achieved them by the date necessary for shooting (10th March).
Due to this, the new shooting schedule is below, with each of the changes we had to make to accomplish our shooting. The dates and actors are edited and there is a new post introducing our actors.

To keep our teacher updated on the mini-crisis we had, we used our group's Twitter account to communicate with each other, our actors, and our teacher. This meant that we could get messages out to people quickly and easily.
