Filming Update.

We filmed our final task earlier in the half term, with me being the main actor, Rory and being chased by Sam Webb and Jonathan Nesbitt. We incorporated most of the shots intended, with some of the flashback triggers. We filmed at 7am in the morning, to fit with our mise en scene, dull sky etc. We also filmed early to avoid lots of people what could potentially avoid continuity errors, such as people in one shot but then not in the next shot, The whole day was succesful with some good inspirational ideas from us. At the end of the day we arranged for another day to film and fill in the missing bits.I tried editing the film quickly at home, but some shots really didnt work.

NB. When filming on the camera display screem we thought we had captured good footage when we played the clips on the computer we found that there was more in the shot than what we could see on the camera screen. For example theres a scene where I hide around a corner waiting for the bullies to run past,on the camera screen it showed me out of shot, but when we went to look at it on the computer I was in shot.

Unfortunatly this plan was destroyed I was admitted in to hospital days before so I wouldnt be able to act or even be there, As our shots already filmed could not work together without the use of more shots. The group had to film again with different actors. Also on the day our other actor didnt turn up so Patrick unforuantly had to step in to film.

The group refilmed all the shots we did and incorporated the fact that the camera display doesnt show all whats in the shot.They managed to film all the shots in one day (seeing as they had already done them before) Unfortunatly the group didnt manage any of the scenes apart from the chase scene, the waking up, the flashback and the triggers, being spotted etc. So now we only have a chase sequence for our film, which completly does not follow the storyboard, but the group had to make the best out of the cirumstances and we did.

NB Although I wasnt able to be present for the filming of the shots what will be in our final piece. I was involved all through out, giving my opionion on what should and needs to be done and how they could improve our initial clips.
