Filming Journal Day 2

When creating the plan for filming it made it a lot easier to follow and stay organised. It made us to keep on top of the scenes that we needed and allowed us to not miss any out. We made sure that we stuck to the 180-degree rule for majority of the time while we were filming to create a smooth run. We also had used shot reverse shot to show the convocation between Emily and Etienne to create interaction and make it seem more realistic when they are with each other.

We began to film the scenes that only included Emily, we completed these shots in the daylight so these shots were ones such as; when she’s leaving the house to go to school, when she is having the argument with her boyfriend and then she goes off and meets the other boy. When I was filming the shots of Emily I intended that we do a mixture of different shots to get different angles and therefore we would be able to choose which we thought were most effective.

Overall, the filming that we did went the way we wanted it to go, we used a great quality camera which I borrowed off my dad and he gave us an artificial bright light to attach to the camera for additional effect, as we came into some issue where we had to continue to film in the dark, this was due to us not being able to get Etienne until later. We also had to re film the part where Emily is in bed with Etienne, we got a shot of her sneaking through the door to see if anyone was awake and then telling him to come through. This implied that she was more powerful than him and rebellious.

We also completed the filming of the small clips to use at the end of our music video.
