“While making our film, we learned about all the different shots, camera positions and how hard it is to make a film! My job was directing. I think it is one of the hardest jobs. If people got mixed up, didn’t use enough expression or forgot what to do, I had to stop the shot, tell the actors what to do and start again. In a film 8 minutes long, there were about 100 shots in it. Some shots took over 10 takes. There were 15 actors and 14 backstage people in our half of the film alone. Overall it was great fun. Lots of people made funny mistakes.” (Niall Kavanagh – Co-Director)
“It was very hard work. The actors worked very hard. Directing was a bit hard. My job was to keep everything in order. I would say silence on set, rolling, action and then when the scene was over he would say cut.” (Dylan Walsh – Co-Director)
Clapper Board
“I was the clapperboard loader. It was an easy job. I had to hold this board in front of the camera and say scene whatever, shot whatever and take whatever.” (Gillian Foley – Clapper Board Operator)
