I had to work on the Saturday before the shoot and knew that when I finished I would need to go straight to B&Q to purchase some last minute items to enable the Filmable Pinhole Camera system to work. I checked the closing time and had two hours to achieve my goal. On my way from Lewisham on the bus too Greenwich. I suddenly remembered that there is a Wicks building suppliers a lot closer and walkable to Dan Duran's place - perfect to drop of the materials for transport to the Chinnor location at 7.30am the next morning. So I jumped off the bus and walked the five minutes journey. When I arrived at Wicks I asked for a pen and paper so I could sketch out a rough design of how the system may work.

I set about shopping for the materials I believed would be needed to construct a frame that would both give enough length for the four feet minimum distance for focus and enable a light proof space around the image plane and the Sony EX1. It was now very clear we would have our work cut out for us in the morning.
