Rats, Maggots and Coffins!

Back again!
Well in the last few weeks weve had some pretty interesting shoots at Kingswood in Overtsrand and at 'Take 5' in Norwich!
Our first shoot was in a longish hall in Kingswood where we were filming the banquet scene and so had to lay out a heap of food including jelly, apples, melon and a pig's head!
We brought along with us the two rats Jodie and Josie who were incredible actresses and did it in one take! We also had the pleasure of having the infamous Alex May with us playing Dracula once more. Nice one Alex! Then we got the maggots out..............

Firstly they absolutely stink!!!!
And after we filmed them squerming about all over our lovely feast we had to clear them up which i have to admit was the worst job i have EVER had to do.
And we did all this without the Kingswood crew noticing. Hehehehe!


The next shoot was in a cellar in 'Take 5' where we had to transport 4 coffins.....
3 came in the minibus along with about half a dozen slightly cramped pupils.
When we got there everyone had to be made up into VAMPIRES (except Alex Tebble a.k.a Guy). Jack C and me got some leafage from the middle of the roundabout outside.

Getting in the coffins was the easy bit, getting out was slightly harder...
Though we pulled it off while looking rather creepy!
Well done to everyone who filmed it! We're nearly there so keep up the good work!
