This was because we had planned for Gemma to stay on the train and for me to go and pick her up from the airport. This would stop us being able to do more than one filming of it.
This made us very nervous and we did not get the first shot right. Our framing was wrong and we had not anticipated that I would not be tall enough to hold the camera high enough for a perfect over the shoulder shot from behind Harry.
Luckily, Gemma jumped off the train just in time and did not need to stay on there therefore we did not only have one chance.
We decided to not give up on the idea, and waited an extra half hour for the train on the other platform to arrive. We only filmed the the train boarding so our footage for as the train arrived could still be used from the previous attempt.
We had more time to prepare for our second shot and I believe it worked very well. Hopefully our editing skills will reflect this.
