Originally we were planning to film all the scenes that the guy was in; this includes the scenes in the pub and the interior shots in the house. Unfortunatley our male actor pulled out at the last minute and deadlines meant we couldn't find a replacement in time.
We therefore improvised by altering the narrative so his scenes were no longer necessary. It wasn't what we had set out to do and we did lose the image we had planned of a dramatic break up between a man and a woman. Instead the male character was left to the audience's imagination- having left a note.
The new narrative showed the fiance getting back from shopping and finding the note. She waits for him, goes to sleep and finds that in the morning the male character has still not returned. She gets very angry, packs her bags and leaves.
All in all the filming worked out well, we got plenty of footage and could then invision our new story linking to our previous ideas.
