Filming update 2

The second time round of filming was much more successful and we felt more confident with our result. We spent less time in the freezing cold weather because we had pre-planned and knew what we were expecting to accomplish. Having an organised and logical structure, it made the filming a much more enjoyable process which has intrinsically motivated each and every one of us. We also filmed every movement at least twice which helped choose the shot which best fit when it came to editing. The only difficulty we found was the amount of time as due to other commitments, very little filming time has been found! We found that towards the end of our filming afternoon we had to rush things because it was getting increasingly dark. Although we just managed it, we noticed it was slightly lighter at the beginning of certain scenes compared to other scenes; however this isn’t to be helped as we have no control over the lighting, it just proved difficult when it came to matching the scenes up. Luckily, the lighting isn’t a huge issue as we are able to incorporate the antagonist scenes in between, so the change of lighting will not be noticeable and it will add to the realism. The plot has all been changed to be set at dusk time so the dark lighting suits the shots well! Having decided this, it means we will have only a small time period we can film so we need to make sure we keep this in mind prior to our allotted filming time so we can proceed straight away. Despite the disappointment at first, the second take of filming has made us become more hopeful that our opening two minutes could possibly be a success and we look forward to filming the remaining.
