Today we shot scenes 1-6, 15-21 and 27-29
These shots were filmed in the school corridor, the school toilets, and a woodland area outside of school. We have yet to film the courtyard scenes where we will need more actors, and the bridging music scenes where we will film in our school sports fields. Our filming today was very successful as we had time to film more than we expected. Due to us not being able to film last Wednesday, we felt we should get as much done as possible in order to manage our time successfully. I was mainly directing, whilst sorting our characters costume and makeup, and filming. Jasmine and I also both took photographs whilst filming which we can use for our digipack and advert. We also took photographs of our main character to show her costume and makeup. Although we had a successful afternoon, we did have some limitations. The tearful look we went for with our actress did not show up in the photographs so until we begin editing we do not know if it is clear in the shots. Whilst filming outside, we felt the strength of the wind was a hassle as it cause some shots to appear shaky as the tripod was not very stable. The height of the tripod was another issue as it was very short. We had to place it on higher objects in order for the shot to look as we wanted it. During the school scenes we had some people walking past as we were filming, but we discussed this and if when editing there are other students in the shots, we realised it may not be a bad thing. Schools are full of students so other students in the shots will just make the location look more realistic.
We filmed some extra shots which we thought would look good in our video, although we did not plan to do this. When we got into filming we came up with lots of ideas which we shot so we have plenty of footage to edit.
