- Busy shots down oxford street
- Close ups of gorilla body parts and tracking with the dolly down the street.

- Esculator shots - different angles
- Wating on the platform - out to in focus
- shot from inside train pulling into station and seeing gorilla by the near doors. (hard shot - needs practise)
- Check the lighting on the tube - see if we get a clear enough picture
- Tracking shots with car (important) - we can try this in a location thats not as busy as oxford street. If it works then on the real shoot we'll go down to oxford street.

Test Shoot - Preparation

Ok basically there are a lot of things to get ready for the test shoot so this is just a list to myself of all the things we need to remember.

- Construct more of our narrative so we know more locations to shoot on succesfully without wasting time.

- Check out the drama block as a possibility for shooting the performance shots. I've seen it done in a previous video and although their work wasn't as tight as it needed to be, i think we can work well with the stage and lights.

- Get the gorilla costume from my friend. Make sure it's not dirty.

- Get a work suit to see if it looks good with the gorilla costume we have.

- Talk to Ms Blackborow about ordering a second gorilla costume. Although it's not vital for the test shoot, it is VITAL for our shoots the following weekends so we need to order it as soon as possible to make sure we have it.

- Again, not vital for the test shoot but talk to some actors about being in the video. We'll need some of our friends for the tube scene as well as for the band and the solo artis who special guests.
