2nd week into semester two, we got a great & exciting oportunity to become part of a film crew for 2 days. "Percivil Productions" a london based film company were down on the beach filming the performing arts students from Weston College's Main knightstone campus.
Due to other commitments i was only able to help as a runner on the 2nd day of filming, but enjoyed it so much i decided to go down in my own time on t
he thursday. I found it a very insightful experience, all the members of the crew were v
ery helpful & answered many of our questions.
There was a lot of standing around and not much to do at 1st. then things started to pick up a bit, Keely & I were given the job of running back & forth between the production office & the location on the beach, whilst Sam, Tom, Adam, & Alecia were on crowd control. Whilst being a runner I noticed something about myself….. How psychically un – fit I was!!! There was a lot of running (in some cases literally) to be done, by the end of the day I was exhausted!!!
I feel I learnt a lot from “being on the job” as it were, I felt it was a nice change from being stuck in the class room, & we all managed to do some networking!!!
