Below is the final script.
The portion highlighted in red was something we were unsure about whether or not to keep but we recorded it anyway just incase we needed it.
We met Sheryll at around 11am in front of where the Banksy piece was set up; myself and Mike set up the camera and sound whilst Aimee and Sophie got Sheryll settled and aware of what we we'd be filming today and was handed the printed script.
We got through most of her pieces to camera in about an hour to an hour-and-a-half and by half 2 - 3 'o' clock we had finished her speaking parts. So she left to head back and we stayed to get shots of Dwelling by Krijn De Koning.
I felt the day went very well: Sheryll was great and professional and remembered her lines perfectly with only a short amount of rehearsal. The shots we did get were good and kept to the rule of thirds: sound wasn't an issue either.
One particular shot I'm proud of is the walkie-talkie with Sheryll walking beside the harbour: aside from slight overexposure and a too-abrupt stop by the camera when Sheryll comes to a stop (my fault as I was camera operator for the day) I think it's one of the best shots of the shoot, if not the whole project thus far. Sophie was on the boom 10 feet away walking with Sheryll and Mike was beside me acting as the pull-focus whilst I panned and zoomed so it was quite an elaborate process for a 15 second shot. But it was fun.
A downside to the day was that again, we filmed some PTC's with the intention of using them as cutaways if we had too many: meaning that there will be background noise if they are used as voice-overs. Also we didn't get the interview the script mentions, meaning we may struggle in hitting the 2 minute mark.
