Film Schedule (first draft)
This is a film schedule that was created on Microsoft Word. Our group will try and go by this schedule, however there may be a few set backs where we have to change the schedule a little. However it explains the times that each scene will be filmed. We have chosen times such as 4.30pm as it gets dark around that time, and we need a low key setting for this horror movie.
