Weekly Updates (Abigail Odum)

Week 6


 On Monday 15th February we got together with our characters to film the outside scenes of our sequence unfortunately Tobi, playing Melinda was not able to make it due to the fact that she was changing the style of her hair, if we shot her with two different hairstyles it wouldn't make sense.

We started filming around 3:00pm so it wasn't too dark, when we started filming we came across a few problems. We set up the camera near the road so every time a car came by we had to move the camera and this meant we had to adjust the camera so it wasn't slanted. Apart from that our two characters embraced their roles and we managed to get all the shots we needed for the exterior scenes. It was important for us to get some filming done over the half term as we were able to watch the tape and spot any mistakes and it gave us more ideas and ways to improve. Next week we hope to finish filming completely and get started on editing the footage. During the filming process we made some changes to our shots and so we have to take new photos for our storyboard in which delaying the uploading of our storyboard.

 Billy also added some information on the software that we have and will use during our coursework task. He explained how and why we would use them and above all when. By next week we hope to have our shot list and production brief completed
