Is there a way around a difficult shoot?

The location of a church was tricky to convey, however we used rooms and the outside of buildings that we thought resembled a church. When we edit the shoot, we will include a non-diegetic soundtrack of a hymn or an organ that conveys the feelings of being in a church.

Props we needed:

·         Guns

·         Torches
