Today's filming was somewhat disasterous. The footage I got was good, but, actually filming it was challenging due to the extreme winds that were blowing the armour off of my actor. On top of that, during the middle of one of the takes, an entire panel of the garden fence was blown off, followed by three more shortly after we'd finished. Despite our fearing for our lives as the wind tried to kill us with flying fence panels, it actually worked out pretty well for the footage as the half-blown-off panel, just before it was blown completely off, can be seen in one of the takes. This will actually help build the post-apocalyptic look.
After every take, we were having to put parts of the armour back on to my actor's body whilst making sure that the camera, mounted on a skateboard, wasn't taken away by the wind. In the end, though, I am happy with the footage I captured, and the wind actually makes a somewhat nice effect with the blowing of the weeds.
