NOTES:

Need to make sure we set the scene first, remembering to leave out any key props, eg the mugs and glasses so they are in all of the frames to make sure the continuity is continued throughout all of the scenes. If the filming has to be done over several days make sure the costume and make up are always the same to keep it realistic looking. ALSO remember to keep each frame well lit to make sure we can see what is going on even if it’s dark outside.
