Club Kosho was yet another shoot involving the need to direct extras. Now that I had a basis for how to direct extras developed from the lecture theatre shoot, it allowed me to exert more confidence in projecting my creative direction to a group of people. The extras on the day were great and very flexible which allowed me to focus on putting the actors over on the big screen.
We were granted 2 hours to shoot the club scene, so as soon as we turned up, it was getting to work time, everyone played their part in creating something special. The owner of the club allowed full use of the lights which allowed more colours and allowed more creative direction inside of the camera lense, as that is what the most important factor is.
The biggest downside of the shoot was the distance we had to travel to get to the location. Because the shoot was in romford it ate a lot of the budget up on travelling and getting the crew from A to B, which meant we were over budget on other aspects of the production. Although Timothy tried his best to get the best locations and extras, the Romford shoot was definitely questionable in terms of distance, as there were clubs in the area that could accommodate if we allocated time to access all of the local area. That being said, sometimes in life you have to play the hand you're dealt, so we did, effectively.
Below is my thoughts on the day.
