First day filming? - Denied permission to film at Regents park playground...

On our short lesson on Monday, we packed up the equipment and took the bus to Regents Park. We planned to film some parts of me entering the scene and reaction shots but there was a problem.

We went to our location and saw the gate of the playground was closed. I saw the notice board and rang the playground officers number.

I asked if we were able to film in the playground and we were denied for these reasons:

• The playground did not permit people without children to enter.
• The playground is closed during this period because of the weather.

We had to leave and find another location. On the way back to return the equipment to college, our other planned location was on the way, so we stopped by to see if it was suitable and had no problems.
