I have just returned from recording some wildtrack for Playtime. Some of the sound was effected by sounds such as dogs barking and planes and so exra recording was needed. I recieved this list from the editor:

1.kids saying come play with us emily and laughing.
2. child running and the sound of a park gate closing
3. wildtrack for the well. too much of a hum, maybe get eve saying this again with the wildtrack if its possible?
4. doorbell/knock
5.i need the tape for when martin is picking up rachel and she closes the door accidently deleted that.
6. wildtrack park scenes kids playing
7. eve saying lets play hide and seek
8. wildtrack for end shot of well, just ambience noise from the woods like birds tweeting or something.

I asked Andrew Binns to help me out recording the sound and i am just about to take the card into uni. As far as the edit is concearned, all that has to be done is the sound putting onto the film with the music, a little colour grading and the titles adding.

In regards to smashed, i have spoke to all cast members to ensure they are still available to film, checking with locations, recruiting runners and making sure everything is in place for the 4th onwards. We also have a meeting with Dene Films on the 27th. I also placed a casting call on starnow for extras for the club scene as we were initialy going to ask the cast to bring friends, however on second thoughts this means we have no control over them and it is likely that they will be alot less professional/cooperative.
