[Dave LaRonde] “Shadows: Do you propose to shoot this on a sunny day, when the angle of the sun may cast shadows on other actors? On a cloudy day, when shadows are dispersed?
Interactions: Do the people added to the shot interact with the primary character in any way? Do they sit close enough to touch? Do they speak to one another? Do they have any form of physical contact, such as fist bumps, ruffling one another’s hair, conversation or something else?
The Unsaid: You may have neglected to mention something crucial in your vision. For example, you may have forgotten that at the end, they all jump up and shout “Cowabunga!” or something.”

Ok.. Winter is just kicking in here so it was going to likely be overcast so no shadows hopefully.

Originally I wanted some of the actors to extend an arm behind the back of the central character (shot is based on friends supporting the main character), but figured this would be too hard to do, so decided I would have to go with placing actors so there was no interaction..

Nothing else in the shot. Simple as that! Have had a little more luck in the last few days getting it looking ok with some sample footage, but want to be confident of the most effective way to go about it before I do the filming.

Thanks for your help 🙂
