Monday 9th February 09 - First Filming Day

Today we began filming our film. We did the first few shots at Reigate College because we needed a large, dark, empty room. In addition we only needed 3 people so we could get started pretty quickly. The filming went well and we discusses each shot before we filmed it to make sure everyone was happy and that it would be the best shot we could produce. We did each shot a couple of times in different ways so when we edit it we have a wider choice in terms of what shots we could use for the final piece. One problem we might have had was the audio on the camera. Because we were unable to playback the footage we filmed straight away, we were unable to see if our voices were clearly audible.
The roles of the first few scenes are as follows:
Steven: Gang thug
Jon: Gang thug
Rachael: Gang leader
Jess: Camera
Although Jess was on camera, we all looked at the shot before we filmed it to make sure we could all decide as a group what looked best and what would be most effective for our film. We managed to get all the scenes we wanted to film completed and at the moment we should be on schedule for the rest of the filming.
