Day 3 of filming

Day 3 of filming

Location: The couple’s house

What went well:

- All members of the group that were needed turned up and arrived on time

- Both characters being filmed wore the same as previous filming days which allowed there to be no continuity errors

- We were able to get all the shots we planned to get and try out some new ones that would work well

- Ideas were able to be shared by the whole group and we all cooperated and worked well together

Issues we had:

- There was a big problem with lighting. We are unaware whether that’s because the camera we used didn’t have a protector for the lenses or whether it was just because on the day of filming it was light outside. To solve this problem, two members of the group had to hold a dark bed sheet over the windows (shown in the picture). This helped for the majority of the shot, the laptop screen still can’t be seen clearly but we didn’t think that was much of an issue.

- The house we filmed in was on a busy main road so when we filmed the scene of the sister knocking at the door we didn’t think the dialogue would be loud enough if it was said outside the door, so instead we changed it so the sister comes in, speaks then leaves.

- One of the scenes we’d planned to film was the poster being printed, when we tried to film this it didn’t work because the printer didn’t have enough ink in it. To solve this we filmed him pressing print but didn’t film it printing, we just filmed the end result which had been printed already
