Reflection on filming

when we started filming form the of we had problems as we were missing one of our group members Jacob who was sick, this put me and Elise in problems as when could shoot the scene where we was to show conversation and reverse shot reverse but we tried as best as we can to at least get the opening part to are sequence then try to address the problem when we came to it. Although we encountered these problems it seemed easy as the planning was done in allot of depth and detail. After we shot a couple of scenes we had another group member added (Casey) this made it much easier as now we had someone who could have an audience view point through is video shooting.
Another problem hit us as we began shooting again the next day we realised we never had the same close on with would make the continuity of the video clip pointless so we though quickly and decided to start again still basing it on are storyboard.

During the filming process the continuity seemed slightly harder than we first thought, enabling everyone to look as if they haven’t moved in separate shots was hard to confirm especially during the opening and shutting of the door process. Other parts which seem to cause us a little problem was the 180 degree rule when going through a door showing the character from behind of the opening to the camera in from of the closing I feel this was because of the very tight angle we was shooting at while coming through the door. For the majority of the filming period we used the camera on a tripod, however in one sequence Casey was looking round the set room examining it from his own point of view, to do this shot we used a point of view shot which would allow the audience to see the various movements in Casey's point of view, we believed this would be really effect as it would lead us on to shot reverse shot quickly without too much scenes in-between making the video clip not drag on and become boring to the audience .
