We make the decision to film at Kalbarri Gorge instead of travelling even further North. If we head futher we'll never get back to Perth on time to deliver the 4WD back. This turns out to be a great decision. The Gorge is amazing. We shoot alot of footage here including landscape shots and the Blue Character's discovery walk, deep in the valley bed. The rock is perfect for the project.
This is our first taste of how hot Australia can be at this time of year. It is sweltering and there are many many flies. We film most of the day "mad dogs and english men go out in the midday sun"as the saying goes.
We then head back to Cervantes as a half way stop South. We planned a repeat shoot at the Pinnacles so this is perfect. Bruno films landscape material on the way, large vistres as the sun goes down. It takes hours to drive South so we stop at Jurien Bay and camp there.
The following day we decide to take time off and relax a little . It has been non-stop for those driving. Filming, trecking, performing and camping in the intense heat has taken it out of us. Ruth has heat stroke to cap it all so we stay put. In the afternoon we set off for Cervantes. We shoot some evening footage at The Pinnacles and decide on a 4.30 am start the following day.
