Easter treats

Wow, I really am having a streak of good luck!
I sent out a notice via a lecturer to the first year students and got four replies. Four!! I've e-mailed the two who seemed the most enthused asking if they're free during the week of the 19th. Now I just need to wait and see what they say.
I've also got the soundtrack! My mum's band have recorded an origional song and have given me permission to use it. The band's guitarist who wrote the song is in a UK- New York relationship so I think he agreed because it's something close to his heart. I'd ask to interview him while I'm here visiting my parents, but I don't have the necessary equipment. Not only is it a lovely song, but it's already been professionally recorded which will save a lot of time and energy.
If there's one thing I've learnt from this project, it's that you can't assume that everything will go according to plan. Just because you plan something doesn't guarantee you'll be ready for it. So now I'll be sure to always write in lots and lots of extra time.
So that's soundtrack done, narrator secured and interviees almost secured. There's only a few more things to do before shooting so I'm very proud of myself! I hope that there isn't a mountain load of things I haven't realised I have to do hiding somewhere.
