first day of shooting

We planned to film Ben's office scene as it seemed like the simpler task for the short time we had and limited places we could go at the time.
We had previously collaborated in writing the script collaborated with him and Luke in writing the script in accordance to the mobile phone call with Luke in another location and also cross cutting between the motorbike shots.
Vicki did the camera work in accordance with the script as well as Vicki directing Ben on how to perform; both physically and how he spoke e.g. the tone of his voice. this went well however we had to re-do a few of the shots due to minor imperfections e.g. the way he said a word; however doing this made the shot look more professional in the attention to detail.
We filmed the shots in Dr Doherty's office- we feel this was a perfect location as the interior had leather seating and a gangster-feel to it, it looked very professional however a problem we had was not being able to alter it, e.g. taking or moving things he had on his desk which were irrelevant to the mise en scene we anticipated.
Unfortunately, due to being limited in time as he needed his office for the rest of the afternoon, we need to finish the shot of Vicki coming into the room and shooting Ben which we had high expectations for and is a vital part in the sequence so we must get this done on the next shooting day we get.
