Filming Day 3

Today we have set up of all the equipment and tried to follow on from filming last time, but we had a problem, one of our actors could not make the filming day and we had to film today and our main focus today was getting all of the shots needed for our inside scenes, which meant we needed all of our actors at our desposal.
So i who was doing the driving in the car scenes and filming the inside scenes as one of us had to film, had to step in and we had to make ways around filming and acting at the same time, but as a group we got around it and got the inside scenes needed, so we had now finished those scenes and captured what we needed, so we could move on to all the outside scenes.

Filming Preparation

During the week we planned our new film with new ideas, sorting out the timing of the each section, what actors we need, the props and the acting we would do to make it look realistic and at the same time going with the whole genre of the film so that the audience can connect.
Also i have been doing more research on what the audience want to see and got some good and interesting results which could help us with our filming and these results of my questionnaire will be seen in my next blog update.
So this has all been planed over the week ready for the weekend.

Filming Day 2

We did this on a friday night after school, we got prepared and set up, with our actors in place.
We had all of our props in place, so we would not have to waste any time.
We filmed the inside scenes, such as the introduction and the violet scenes.
We tried and used a variety of shots to capture what we wanted and needed, we had to take many scenes time and time again which took time as we had to get it right and due to this we could not do all of our filming in one night.
After this we started to film some of the outside scenes such as the car scenes and using different shots to capture what we need for our film.
As the light began to fade, we where struggling to get everything done, including all of our inside footage, as we had our introduction sorted but not all of our violent scenes but we had made great progress so we had stuff to work on and evaluate so we could plan what else we needed to do and check that what we had was good, so we knew what to do for our next filming day.

Filming Day 1

We had ideas to do a bike scene, so we captured many differnt types of shots using the camera and it was all going to plan but then we had a brainstorm and decided to scrap our filming that we had done during that day and decided on a new idea which we thought would go better with the whole of our film.
But because the light began to fade we had to call it a night and film another day, but before we could do that we had to rethink all of our ideas so we had no delays next time.
