Filming day - friday

The first thing I did when Robyn got to my house was to make a decision on the house, whether or not we should have skylights. Her answer was 'definately', so they got added in, as extra we found some clear mints and crushed them up and put them in the holes for the windows. This would mean once cooked the mints would have melted into a sheet and created a window effect.

For the second day of filming our aim was to finish everything, and we did apart from the party scene at the end. This was a very big achieve as we only had a morning because I started work at three and had to take Robyn home first. The majority of time was taken up with the army men, decorating them then making them rise followed by their long walk across the counter. In the middle of the scene where the men walk across the camera we looked at the time and saw it was soon running out, so I left Robyn in charge of animating while I attached the roof and decorated the house. Once Robyn had finished the scene she helped me finish the house to get it done quickly as it was needed for the next scene.

     With both of us working together our pace started to pick up again and we were on track to finish with plenty of time to clear up, however while taking the pictures of the men walking into the house the roof started to slide down. This was not helpful as we had to try and fix it without moving the house too much, that was very hard and subsequently there is some movement in the house scene.
