0:00:40 > 0:00:43- Pizza. Yummy!- Not pizza again, Sid!
0:00:43 > 0:00:47- I thought you were going to eat healthy food.- Oh, yes, I forgot.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50- Oh, well. I'll have the pizza, then. - What?!
0:00:50 > 0:00:54- Well, there's no point in it going to waste!- I'll make a salad instead.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58- Hold on, Sid. It's time. - Great!- Great!
0:01:02 > 0:01:04- It's time to play! - Whose turn is it today?
0:01:04 > 0:01:06- Let it be me!- Let it be me!
0:01:06 > 0:01:08- Me!- Me!- Me!
0:01:10 > 0:01:13- Let it be me! Let-let-let it be me.- Me!
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Let it be me!
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Let it be me.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20BOTH: # Let it be me Let it be me
0:01:20 > 0:01:24# I really, really, really, really hope that it's me
0:01:24 > 0:01:28# Let, let, let, let, let, let-let-let it be me!
0:01:28 > 0:01:31# Let it be me Let it be me
0:01:31 > 0:01:35# I really, really, really, really hope that it's me. #
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Could it be me?
0:01:37 > 0:01:38Could it be me?
0:01:40 > 0:01:41It's me!
0:01:41 > 0:01:45# Yes, it's me Yes, it's me
0:01:45 > 0:01:48# I'm really, really, really, really happy! #
0:01:48 > 0:01:50It's me!
0:01:50 > 0:01:54Look, there's the dressing-up room!
0:01:54 > 0:01:55# Let's play! #
0:01:55 > 0:01:57This is really exciting.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00So, what do you think we're playing today?
0:02:05 > 0:02:09So, what am I wearing? A pair of skates...
0:02:09 > 0:02:11a ballroom dancer's outfit...
0:02:11 > 0:02:13and a parrot hat?
0:02:13 > 0:02:17I don't think this can be right, do you? Let's try again.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22So, what am I wearing?
0:02:22 > 0:02:27Well, I've got a shirt with a camera on it and a roll of film.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29So what are we playing today?
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Of course, we're going to be film directors!
0:02:32 > 0:02:34So what do we need to know?
0:02:36 > 0:02:40Film directors make films that people watch in cinemas.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43They decide what they look like and what the actors do.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47Film directors decide the best place to put the camera
0:02:47 > 0:02:49to record what happens.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53- They must say the word...- Action! - ..at the beginning of filming,
0:02:53 > 0:02:56so the actors know when to start their performance,
0:02:56 > 0:02:58- and...- Cut!- ..when it's finished.
0:02:58 > 0:03:02- Take two!- And film directors often record each part of the film
0:03:02 > 0:03:07- more than once...- Action!- ..and then choose the best bits.- Cut!
0:03:09 > 0:03:13And that's what we need to remember. Do we need anything else?
0:03:17 > 0:03:21Oh, a small red flag. I wonder what that's for.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Well, I'm sure it'll come in handy.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27We've got everything we need. Let's go!
0:03:27 > 0:03:28# Let's play. #
0:03:30 > 0:03:34- Hey, Sid, we're going to be film directors!- That sounds like fun!
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- I can't wait. What've you got there? - I'm making a salad.- What are these?
0:03:38 > 0:03:41Pickled gherkins. You can't have a salad without them!
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- I just can't open the jar. - I wish I could help,
0:03:44 > 0:03:48- but I've got to go. See you later! - Have fun. Bye!- Bye!
0:03:48 > 0:03:50# Let's play! #
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Come on, let's play film directors.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Ha-ha! Wheee!
0:03:58 > 0:03:59# Let's play! #
0:04:02 > 0:04:05So, where are we?
0:04:05 > 0:04:09This looks like the place - a studio where they make films!
0:04:09 > 0:04:13Well, I've never been so insulted in my whole life!
0:04:13 > 0:04:16I wonder what that's all about.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Come on, let's go in and find out.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25- And don't think you can... Where's he gone?- Who?- Hector,
0:04:25 > 0:04:29- the director of the film I'm making. - A man walked past me outside.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32That's him. You're fired, you hear me?
0:04:32 > 0:04:34- Who are you?- I'm Rebecca.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Nice to meet you. Who are you? - Who am I? I'm Basil Bigcheese.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41I run this studio. We make films, the best films you've ever seen.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44Are you making a film at the moment?
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- Of course, and it's going to be great.- What's it about?
0:04:47 > 0:04:50It's about true love. Picture the scene.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54- She's all alone in the palace. - Who is?- The princess.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57All alone, desperate for love, yearning.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- Then he knocks on the door. - The postman?- The man of her dreams,
0:05:00 > 0:05:03- from outer space! - Is he tall, dark and handsome?
0:05:03 > 0:05:07- No, he's an alien with a big googly head.- Oh.- You see,
0:05:07 > 0:05:09that's the whole point of the story.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13It doesn't matter what you look like. It's only love that matters.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16It's going to make loads of money,
0:05:16 > 0:05:21or rather...it will when I find myself a director.
0:05:21 > 0:05:26- Ah!- Ah, what?- What about me? - What? Do you know any directors?
0:05:26 > 0:05:29- No, I could direct your film...maybe. - Hm.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34OK, you're hired.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Don't mess it up. Here.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40- "The Alien And The Princess." Catchy title!- I'll be back later,
0:05:40 > 0:05:45- see how you're getting on.- Wait, what am I supposed to...? Oh, well.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48I'd better find somewhere to start directing this film!
0:05:48 > 0:05:50# Let's play. #
0:05:50 > 0:05:55Hello? This must be where all the filming happens.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59And look, the princess's palace.
0:05:59 > 0:06:04Oh, this must be the camera. Is it on?
0:06:04 > 0:06:07I've always wanted to be in a film.
0:06:07 > 0:06:12I'm in a film, I'm a monkey in a film. Oo-oo-oo-ooh, aa-aa-ah.
0:06:12 > 0:06:18Ooo-oo-oo-oo-ooh. Aa-aa-ah. Ooo-oo, aa-ah...
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- Hello.- I'm Keith, the cameraman.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24Yes. I was just, er, checking the camera was working, and...
0:06:24 > 0:06:28- Yes, yes, it seems to be working just fine. Carry on.- Right.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32- So, what're you doing here?- I'm, er, the new director of this film.- Oh!
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Good. Could do with a new director round here,
0:06:35 > 0:06:38- someone who knows what they're doing.- That's me,
0:06:38 > 0:06:42always in control and knows what they... Oops! Ahem.
0:06:42 > 0:06:46- Suppose we'd better get started, then.- Yes.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49What am I supposed to be doing?
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Oh, hold on. I remember, do you?
0:06:51 > 0:06:55Directors decide the best place to put the camera
0:06:55 > 0:06:58to record what happens. That's what I need to do.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01So, Keith, could you move the camera just there
0:07:01 > 0:07:04and point it in the direction of the palace?
0:07:04 > 0:07:09Right. Camera here, pointing at that over there.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15Good. Right, now I just need to find myself some actors.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17# Let's play! #
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- Hello?- Come.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Oh, hello. Are you an actor?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26I am indeed. Charmed.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Right, let's get to work, shall we? Do my face.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Um, I don't know how.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35- Well, you are here to do my make-up, aren't you?- Nope!- Oh.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40- Well, who are you?- I'm Rebecca. I'm the new film director.- Director?!
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Well, that is very good news.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45The last chap we had was absolute rubbish.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48I said to him, "How do you want this alien to speak?"
0:07:48 > 0:07:51- Do you know what he said to me? - What?- He said to me,
0:07:51 > 0:07:55"Why don't you try acting? See what comes out." Me!
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- You?- Yes, me! - Well, I won't say that, then!
0:07:58 > 0:08:01What kind of make-up are you having done?
0:08:01 > 0:08:03They're making me look like a wrinkly alien.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07Not much make-up needed then! Ha-ha-ha. Oh! Only joking.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Just a silly little joke. Just going to, erm... Yeah.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14- See you in the studio in a bit. - Wrinkles! Me?!
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Keith, top of page seven, I'd like a wide shot of the palace door.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Keith? Where's he gone?
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Oh, well, I'll read the script while I'm waiting.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29Oh! The alien crashes on Earth in his spaceship,
0:08:29 > 0:08:33and meets the princess in this palace. But wait,
0:08:33 > 0:08:37the princess has a wicked uncle who's locked her up!
0:08:37 > 0:08:40This is good. Ah!
0:08:40 > 0:08:44- Oh, it's OK, it's only me. - Good. You shocked me!
0:08:44 > 0:08:48Yes, it's this alien head. It's very itchy. Where's Keith?
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- On a tea break, I think. - Of course.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Well, we can rehearse without him.
0:08:53 > 0:08:54Let's do the bit where you
0:08:54 > 0:08:58- arrive at the palace and you're looking for the princess.- OK.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01But this thing is very, very hard to see in.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05And it's terribly, terribly hot. Right, here goes.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Fair Princess, I have returned.
0:09:10 > 0:09:11OK, what happens now?
0:09:11 > 0:09:15- Well, then the princess comes in. - Oh, coming!
0:09:17 > 0:09:19- I'm so sorry I'm late.- Late again!
0:09:19 > 0:09:22There's lots of people outside the studio -
0:09:22 > 0:09:24you know, autographs, selfies -
0:09:24 > 0:09:27I couldn't get through. Anyway, here I am. Who are you?
0:09:27 > 0:09:29I'm Rebecca. I'm the new film director.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33- Oh, very good! Hello, there. - Erm, can we get on, please?
0:09:33 > 0:09:35- It's very, very hot in here.- OK.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37The alien needs to come and stand here,
0:09:37 > 0:09:41and you should come to meet him just there. Perfect.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43Fair Princess, I have returned.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46We must leave this place immediately,
0:09:46 > 0:09:49as your wicked uncle will wake up and lock you up again.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53Tell me, Princess, will you come with me now?
0:09:53 > 0:09:57- Yes!- OK. Is that it?
0:09:58 > 0:10:01- Yes, that's it.- Oh. OK. Good.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03We'd better film it, then.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11- Ready!- Places, please, everyone.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14- And...I'm recording.- Good.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Oh, my first bit of filming!
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Off you go, then.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Why aren't they acting?
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Oh, hold on. I remember, do you?
0:10:25 > 0:10:29Directors must say the word "action" at the beginning of filming
0:10:29 > 0:10:32so the actors know when to start their performance,
0:10:32 > 0:10:35and the word "cut" when it's finished. Action!
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Fair Princess, I have returned.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41We must leave this place immediately or your wicked uncle
0:10:41 > 0:10:44will wake up and lock you up again. We must go.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Phew. My first time directing and it almost went wrong.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49It's quite good, this!
0:10:49 > 0:10:53Tell me, Princess, will you come with me now?
0:10:53 > 0:10:58- Yes!- Now you say "cut". - Oh, yes, of course.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00And...cut!
0:11:00 > 0:11:01Well done, everyone.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07- Must be time for another tea break. - Yes, of course. Tea break, everyone!
0:11:07 > 0:11:09# Let's play! #
0:11:09 > 0:11:11I quite like filming.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15- Rebecca, the actors have learned their lines.- Coming!
0:11:15 > 0:11:17More filming. Exciting!
0:11:19 > 0:11:22- This is so tiring... - OK, let's do the last scene.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25- Righty-oh.- So the uncle has just woken up
0:11:25 > 0:11:29- and you both need to rush away before he catches you.- OK.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31And...action!
0:11:31 > 0:11:35Come, Princess. We must flee right now.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Ouch! Oh, my toe! My toe!
0:11:37 > 0:11:42- Carry on, carry on.- Oh. Oh, this way, my darling alien.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44We have to, er...
0:11:44 > 0:11:47- We must, er... What's my line? - "Run away."- What?
0:11:47 > 0:11:52- "Run away." - We must...run away! This way.
0:11:52 > 0:11:57Ow! This costume is really, really itchy, and very, very hot.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59- Oh, erm... - PHONE RINGS
0:11:59 > 0:12:02- Whose phone is that?- Not mine!
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Cut, cut, cut. This is awful. It's all going wrong!
0:12:05 > 0:12:09- I couldn't see where I was going. - I couldn't remember my line.
0:12:09 > 0:12:14- Can someone answer that phone?! - It's coming from your direction.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15Oh.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19Hello? Mr Bigcheese?
0:12:19 > 0:12:21You're right outside?
0:12:21 > 0:12:23It's Mr Bigcheese. He mustn't see this!
0:12:23 > 0:12:27Yes, just coming, Mr Bigknees. Er, Bigcheese.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29OK. Bye.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37- Ah, Mr Bigcheese! How nice to see you.- Hey, how you doing, kid?
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- How's my film coming along? - Yeah, pretty well.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43- We're just doing some of that filming stuff.- Great. Let me see.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47Er, not at the moment. Don't want to interrupt the actors
0:12:47 > 0:12:50in their very good work, which is going so well.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53- Maybe I'll come back later. - I'll finish off filming
0:12:53 > 0:12:57while you plan the party to celebrate the success of the film.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01The success of the film - I like that idea. OK, keep going, kid.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03What are we going to do? It's all going wrong!
0:13:03 > 0:13:06This film isn't going to be very good at all.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10Oh, hold on. I remember, do you? That's it!
0:13:10 > 0:13:14Film directors often record each part of the film more than once
0:13:14 > 0:13:20and then choose the best bits - that's what I need to do. Come on!
0:13:20 > 0:13:24OK, everyone, we're going to need to film that last scene again.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27- So, Princess, do you know your lines? - I think so.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29And Mr Alien, if you could move this way,
0:13:29 > 0:13:32- then you won't bump into each other. - Great idea!- OK.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36- And everyone's phone's switched off?- Hold on.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40- Yep.- OK, great.
0:13:40 > 0:13:45- Here we go. Ready...and...action! - Come, Princess.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48- We must leave right now.- Oh, oh, oh.
0:13:48 > 0:13:53This way, my darling alien. We must run away.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56And cut! Excellent. Good work, everyone!
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Phew. We'd better crack on and film the rest.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01# Let's play. #
0:14:01 > 0:14:05- I love you, Princess. - And cut! Excellent.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Are we finished yet? I need to take this itchy head off.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- Yes, all done.- Thank goodness!
0:14:11 > 0:14:15Mr Bigcheese is going to be so pleased. Lots of very good filming.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18When are we going to film the big ending?
0:14:18 > 0:14:22- When the alien and the princess fly off.- Eh?- This bit.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26The alien and the princess fly away to a distant planet? What?!
0:14:26 > 0:14:29I missed that bit. We need to do more filming and fast!
0:14:29 > 0:14:32- Shall I go and get the...? - You get the actors
0:14:32 > 0:14:36- and I'll meet you outside.- Right, OK. Tea or coffee?- No time for that!
0:14:36 > 0:14:38# Let's play. #
0:14:38 > 0:14:42- Right, where are the actors? - This thing is so heavy.- This way!
0:14:42 > 0:14:46They're coming. I need to make sure this goes absolutely right.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- We're here. - What are those things on your back?
0:14:49 > 0:14:53Jetpacks. They're really heavy. We've got to turn them on
0:14:53 > 0:14:56then press the button, which makes us fly into the air.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00- It's going to ruin my hair! - OK, OK. Shall we do it, then?
0:15:00 > 0:15:03So, if you head over there and start your jetpacks,
0:15:03 > 0:15:05I'll start filming. When I say "action",
0:15:05 > 0:15:08you press the red buttons and fly away!
0:15:08 > 0:15:12- What, now?- No, no, not yet! The cameraman's not here yet.- Hello.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16- Right, everyone's here. Ready?- Yep.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21OK. Actors, start your jetpacks!
0:15:23 > 0:15:25They're very noisy.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28- What did you say? - I said they're very noisy!
0:15:28 > 0:15:32- Can't hear you over the jetpacks - they're very noisy!- OK.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34And...action!
0:15:36 > 0:15:40I said...action! ACTION!
0:15:46 > 0:15:49- I said "action", but you didn't hear me.- Oh, did you?
0:15:49 > 0:15:53That won't work. If we can't hear you say "action", we won't know
0:15:53 > 0:15:56- when to press the buttons. - And we won't fly into the air.
0:15:56 > 0:16:00What are we going do? If the actors can't hear what I'm saying,
0:16:00 > 0:16:04how will they know when to press their buttons?
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Oh, hold on. I know what we can use, do you?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10I knew this would come in handy.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Instead of saying "action", I'm going to wave this flag.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18When you see it, you press your buttons and then you'll fly off.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21- Excellent idea! - Oh, she's very good, isn't she?
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Yes, much better than that last director -
0:16:23 > 0:16:26- he wasn't very good at all! - No, he wasn't.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Could we get on now, please? Mr Bigcheese is coming soon
0:16:29 > 0:16:33and I need to make sure this film is finished before he arrives.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36OK. Start filming.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Start your jetpacks!
0:16:43 > 0:16:45They're going! They're flying!
0:16:45 > 0:16:47We're filming!
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Wow, look at them go.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Cut!
0:16:53 > 0:16:56- Well done, you two.- Thank you! - Well done, everyone!
0:16:56 > 0:17:00No problem. Looks like there's going to be a good film after all.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04- I'm off for a cup of tea. Nice working with you.- Thanks, Keith.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07Bye! Well, we did it, but we'd never have done it
0:17:07 > 0:17:10without remembering everything we needed to know.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14Film directors decide the best place to put the camera
0:17:14 > 0:17:18to record what happens. They say "action" to start filming,
0:17:18 > 0:17:21and then they say "cut" to stop filming.
0:17:21 > 0:17:25And they often record each part of the film more than once.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27"Take two...action!"
0:17:29 > 0:17:33- I think it's time we went home. - Rebecca, that was out of this world.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37- Did you see it, Mr Bigcheese? - I certainly did!
0:17:37 > 0:17:40- This film is going to be a huge success.- I'm so pleased!
0:17:40 > 0:17:44- Where did the actors end up?- In a field. The cow was quite surprised.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48I switched off the backpacks. They're taking off their costumes.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- I've got to go. Just one more thing.- What's that?
0:17:51 > 0:17:55- Could I have that spanner, please? - It's the least I could do.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59- Thanks, kid. See you later. - Thanks, Mr Bigcheese. Goodbye!
0:18:01 > 0:18:03# Let's play! #
0:18:04 > 0:18:08- Hey, Sid.- Hey, Rebecca.- It was so much fun being a film director.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12There was an alien and a princess and I filmed them flying away.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16- That sounds really good. - It was! You're not eating your salad?
0:18:16 > 0:18:19No. I don't fancy it without the gherkins
0:18:19 > 0:18:21and I still can't quite get this jar open.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25- I think I can help with that. You can use this!- Brilliant.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31Yes, it worked! Brilliant.
0:18:31 > 0:18:35Playing film directors was great fun. What do you like to play?
0:18:35 > 0:18:37# Let's play. #
0:18:37 > 0:18:42We like to play hockey players and score a goal like this.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44- APPLAUSE - Yeah!
0:18:45 > 0:18:50Meow. This is the noise I like to make when I'm playing cats.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Meow, meow!
0:18:55 > 0:18:58When I play Royal Guards, I march like this.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00DRUMS PLAY
