Day fourteen

On paper it's an easy day, we're in the Elevator gallery with one small office scene and a big tracking scene to do. But of course nothing is ever easy, and today gets off to a bad start when I discover that the gallery isn't the empty space I had been expecting, but instead has an exhibition on. After what seems an age we manage to persuade the (very nice) owner to let us move one of the pieces, so at least we can do our office scene. He eventually agrees to let us move a second piece so we can get our tracking shot, but the largest piece in the centre of the room can't be moved.

There's no other option but to rewrite the scene, as we now can't fit both our artworks and the original piece here, so our Sarah Lucas rip off goes in the bin. Thankfully the rewrite works and the scene look great, but the whole day could have been so much easier.

The really good news though is that evening Chelsea beat Liverpool in the champions league semi final, and I've got a day off tomorrow. Then we're off to the hall on Friday. It's funny to look at the list and see that all we have left is the hall, studio, tower block and opening / closing shots (plus pick ups, of course). Not sure how we've got this far, but somehow we have.
