All of the actors turned up for the filming on time, where we were able to take many high quality shots building up from the things we learnt worked and didn't work in our test shoot. All seven actors worked well and listened to our advice that we gave them on how to act on camera in order to bring the best out of them on camera. The process was definitely not as stressful as I thought it would be and our prior experience from the test shoot made us more familiar on how to use the camera equipment and control the actors on set with a strong idea on what exactly we were to be filming. We knew the blocking of the characters on film and the precise spot of where the camera should be placed as well as the lighting we were going to have.

The majority of our shots we didn't have to re-shoot, but some of them we did. Our target audience were keen on us keeping with the quick nature of our running shots, so we decided to keep the quick pace of the running shots for those shots underneath the bridge. The shots of the hacker at Alex's room we decided to re-do, for it didn't look as slick as we wanted and the hacking detailing on his screen didn't look as complicated as we wanted it to be. This also meant we had to re shoot the HQ shots with Jerom and I acting in it, for there are shots of the hacker's computer screen on the organisation's computer due to them tracking him down. We would have already had to re shoot the HQ shots anyway, because the low lighting of the Seward Studio we chose made our footage look too grainy and so we had to re shoot at school on the Tuesday after school the week after filming our main shoot.
