Meeting post 6

• Take a photo of Jacob for the film poster - A mid shot of him smiling showing his side profile.

• Take a photo of Jacob for the film magazine - A mid shot of him smiling head on.

(For  the film trailer)

• Record scenes on Thursday with the film crew - the following scenes:
• Record the scenes of Gray being clumsy. (Jacob)
• Clancy giving Riven a makeover scene. (Mia and Kirsty)
• Clancy and Riven talking about Gray. (Mia and Kirsty)
• Get Jacob to record the voice over.
• We intend to do the last parts of filming on the 16th of march just as finishing touches to add to our nearly complete trailer.
