This is our sample shoot, we did not include the sound yet as it will be diegetic and we are still working on the soundtrack. This is a shoot of central protagonist entering school. Later on we are planning to add other characters entering school and make a split screen. We can't do it now as we haven't filmed those parts yet.

to sum up what we've just discussed:
its urgent that we get to see an edit with your most recent material - you need to think about lunch/after school if you don't have free periods for editing
diegetic sound is vital, even if its is low in the mix - the school's out example we looked at (also a rom-com with a character dashing around school) suffered from the lack of this
none of this footage is usable: the shake and focus movement, plus the changes that will occur in cast given the gap (changes in natural light too) all rule this out
if planning any panning always shoot the same material with tripod TOO, so if it does come out as jerky you still have usable footage
shot variety is crucial - think about how we filmed the Tyrannosir swede, shooting very simple elements repeatedly from different positions to have a range of framing options
cutaway shots (and 'coverage' generally) are important to factor in
if you're not VERY careful with timing, your editing can create discontinuity: slight repeat of action or unintended jump cuts
the gopro might provide some interesting options
