Shooting Method

As-salaamu `alaikum,

In "Going Up North", I plan to employ the following method in terms of shooting: shooting characters' scenes individually (by themselves) and with the whole or part of the cast. Let me elaborate.

In some of the scenes, I will have a character say all the lines in the scenes I think can be shot with just him, although the scene is part of a group of people. I will shot the character most likely from different angles, repeating the same lines. Also, with each character, there will be cut away shots used as fillers.

Of course I will shoot the group together, because it is a movie with a group of people in a car. I want to use not only cost-effective techniques, but time-effective as well.
