Monday the 26th April

Today was an extremly busy day as tonight the group was filming the pre gig of Reverb 2010. I arrived at Coxes Yard at half 7 ready to watch the set up of the gig and the vision mixing being set up in the back room. I managed to get shots of all parts of Coxes yard from and i managed to get different angles of the students making the show. James handed out our scripts and as a group we all decided what parts of the script we were each going to say.
