Throughout the time of filming, we were very lucky that the weather on the day was really good and the lighting was just right, so we didnt really have much trouble in getting through filming. We made sure that if we were to do any retakes or shoot the same scene from a different angle that everything was consistant. This also meant that our main character had to change outfits back and forth during filming depnding on what we decided to film first. Our outfits were very casual and modern as it the storyline is set in the present. This also made it really simple for us to film and not have to worry about what can be shown and what can't for example if it was set in the olden times, you wouldnt be able to have a modern car in the background. There was a part where our actor/actress was unable to act including dialogue without having to cut halfway through so we decided to have no dialogue instead put music for that part and they  just needed to do the acting part. There was also a part where the main character slaps her boyfriend, for the sound of the 'slap', as we do not want to literally slap the actor, the boyfriend timed it that he clapped his the moment the main character pretends to slap him in the face. Overall the shooting was smooth and we did not have much trouble at all, it was a fun experience that I learnt many things from.

  1. Camille - I'm glad things went smoothly. Your blog is reasonably thorough although you are missing the post on timecode. Also, I would have liked to see more regular posts about your group's progress throughout the term. Also, I would like to see more consideration about possible editing effects you could use and use of sound. Overall, though, well done!! I could see that you were making a very positive contribution to your group's project. I;m looking forward to seeing how you edit it...!
