Potential Problems

With any form of form of film, things tend to go wrong quite often, and there are quite a few problems that could crop up during filming and editing of the my film. Firstly there are the Metros themselves. The thing about trains is that they don't tend to stay still for very long. We will need to plan our actions before getting on a train because if we don't know what we are doing it is inevitable that we will end up at the airport before we know it because we were to busy chatting about when to get off etc. There is also the issue of the trains themselves. They are small spaces with dangerous doors that have trapped quite a few people in them, to the extent that Metro themselves created an animated video warning people to be carful of the doors! (see below)

Then we have the weather, my film is supposed to be set on a rainy day, however it my (by some miracle) be a sunny day, which is something I can't really help and must be worked around. I may actually end up shooting in the evening, as it will be much quieter than at rush hour in the afternoon. The drawback of this is that it will be dark by then, making lighting poor, and not allowing me to shoot the film as I picture it. However I see one of the plans becoming reality as I my have to make a compromise in order to film the more confrontational sections such as fights or rowdy passengers. This post has been used to show that I realize my film will almost certainly not go as planned, and has allowed me to set up a few ideas as to what I could do if things need to be changed, as well as foreseeing potential problems.
