Original Shooting script
NOTE: shooting script may change depending on location
“Filming in progress” sign needs to be made and placed before the alley way so people don’t think its actually real.
This was our original shooting scrip, however during production the bike was no longer available so we had to shoot the footage but with Damien walking hence the reason the storyboard is different.
It’s a cloudy day with little sun. Damien is about to leave his house
