Sunday 6th March 2011.
Present: Myself, Matty, Josh, Holly.
Today we git together ar Matty's House to film the indoor shots for our film. These shots revolved around Sophie our actress, waking from her "bed" and moving into the bathroom to then discover her injuries. We began at around 12 and filmed all the way through to 4:30. This may sound like a very long period of time spent on shooting our indoor shots but by spending this much time on them we have guranteed ourselves the best quality shots for our film.
We stuck to the story board exactly making no change to the shot order, or the shots themselves. Overall today we encountered quite a few problems while filming. We had to retake a number of the bathroom shots as we found it extremely hard to fit ourselves, the camera, and the actress into the bathroom to film. To fix this problem of space, half of the group left the room while we were recording and those inside would film from the comfort of Matty's bath tub. As well as this the space restrictions made it incredibly hard for us to make a successful pan from the door to the mirror. And to make this an even harder shot we also needed the door to be part open to avoid making a continuity Error. We solved these problems by reshooting each shot a few times and deciding on a group which would fit best.
Overall today went very well and i am happy with the decisions we made and the shots we filmed.
