Last Weeks Filming..!

Last Week..we started the filming. I think we had all forgotten how long it takes to film a short clip of film! Despite this, we had a lot of fun, as well as working hard ;)

It's not unusual to come across slight blips/flaws in the plan, we didn't thoroughly think through how we would drag the camera and pan around into the living room...so we brainstormed...

Yes, we decided to put the camera and tripod on a rug and ask Leah, a fellow group member to drag the carpet along the wooden floor. It worked well, although we had some troubles getting the camera, tripod and rug over the threshold of the door! But it worked in the end.

Adjusting the tripod! The legs were wonky...

We needed to set the camera and tripod up at the exact point where the camera would merge through the door. This is us attempting it!

Last week was the week we did most of the filming downstairs, the zooming onto the babysitters face..the view from outside the house, looking into the window and seeing Jess (actress).

It took us a while to get set up and to get into the swing of things again, but after a few takes we were on a roll! We filmed the shots a few different ways so we had a choice when it came to digitalising and editing our film.

I will update with more pictures and news from the next filming session :)
