TFL rejection & where we go from here

I had a phone call with Transport for London a couple of days ago after sending them various emails with no response on their part. I left my contact details with them, as for our group, i volunteered to be in contact with TFL.

After sending various emails, within 1 week they had not got back to us so we have had to change our plans. They said that they will look into it, but due to the small amount of time that i have had to contact them in, we have run out of time.

After a full group discussion as well as talking to our teacher, we came up with three options.

The first option was to chance it and start filming. We understood that this is against the law as it would conclude on the trespassing law, which we do not want to get in trouble with. We voted with everyone in our group deciding that this is not the route that we want to go down.

The second option was to completely go back to the drawing board and do our planning again. We understand that we are very stuck on time so we decided to do this outside of lesson time, to insure that we have plenty of time to do our work, and still produce a high quality film before the deadline. We all decided that this would be the best idea, but to perhaps use some of the film we already have to add a contrast. We want to make sure that we don't run into continuity problems aswell.

Our third option would be to film the outside bits outside the station, which we have already done, but then we would film the inside parts somewhere, which would heavily rely on our edits. We believe that this could be done, however we voted against this.
