For a while now, I've wanted to challenge myself

because we've all heard that it doesn't matter

we've got one of these classic cheapo tripods

For sound, I'll go with this TASCAM recoder

For the microphone, we'll use this little one from RODE

It comes with a windshield, so we can use it outside

which is slightly cheaper than a professional boompole

and I'm just going to tape the microphone to the end

So, we've saved some money on the equipment

with thirty actors across twelve locations

Now, that might sound like a real limitation

but there's still so much we can do within that

and the only thing that's going to cost us

But eventually we have to pick a day to film

Now could easily spent all of that time just

going back and forth, giving all the details

I still have the classic pre-shoot nerves

thinking: "Is the concept going to be good enough?"

"Is the script anywhere near good enough?"

and "Why did I leave everything until the last minute?"

because my car is broken down in Yorkshire"

another one of our actors doesn't show up

in my head, trying to come up with something

because we really need to start shooting something
