Week 2, Filming

As we did not have school on two days of this week, it was a good idea to use this time to film. We starting our filming at Sophies house because it is old fashioned and we could create the scary look with the help of editing techniques. We filmed in Sophies bedroom and had the light on and curtains closed so it looked as if it was nighttime. It took about 3 hours to time everything as we had to record some shots again, look back on them and alter our storyboard to fit out location. We did not have enough time to film the outside shots because it would have been too dark outside so we arranged to film it next lesson. I think what worked well, in terms of shots was the first shot where the camera zooms out onto Paige ( we changed the main character as we felt Paige, having blonde hair, would stand out more ). We had slight problems with getting some shots correct such as a two shot of me and paige, because of lighting but we can see in edits if it is needed or we can edit the lighting. I also like the way that we used lots of different angles and shots like the point of view shot of the wine glass, and I also liked the way that we used alot of tracking shots so that the audience would feel closer to the characters.
