After our first day of shooting our actor has had his haircut. Although it was only a little bit he still gives the rocker image we were looking for for our character Guy. The problem we face is continuity. we shot the 2nd from last scene first.This means our character will have short hair in the beginning up until the river scene and then after that it will be short again. The solution we have come up with is to put a hair cut scene in. We will have o organise another shooting day or make it totally random and have the nun cutting his hair in his sleep at the hospital, if not then a open isolated field. It will still effect the continuity of our video so we can make the river scene a flash back from the guy. This will wok well because he will be having flashbacks within flashbacks create even more enigmas for the audience.
As a media group we need to take the blame for this mistake because we did not warn our actor about this when he agreed to act for us. Instead of automatically assuming he was aware of the situation we should of confirmed this with him before making our filming arrangements.
I am adding to this blog post at a later date to say that this did not take place. We tested to see if you could notice the difference and it was pretty much exactly the same as before. After this out come we have decided to follow the original plans as before.
