Set Date Range for Diary
Adding a week or two both ends of the date range for filming is usually enough. You can always add on to the end if necessary - if the start date for filming is put back, start a new Diary (see below). The fewer dates in the Diary, the less time spent scrolling to add availabilities of cast etc.
