Shooting schedule
Monday 25th November As a group we decided to film after school when it was dark
and looked better for the shots. Each person in our group has a different role
in the group that needs to be filmed. Emma and Kieran being agents. Nick is the
camera man and Charlie being possessed. The first couple of shots that needed
to be were of Emma walking in through the door. We then worked out what would
be best to shoot next with the lightening and the equipment that we had. We
used this day as a practice of shooting and getting used to our roles. Whilst
working out the shots we also worked out the script, timing of each shot, and
the number of shots.Tuesday 26th November Once we had looked over our draft from the previous day we started to film the shots that we needed for our full draft. This way we all had the costumes that we needed for our roles. Some of the shots were done during class. The shots that we shot on this day were the first few shots. Emma walking through the door, walking up to the table and talking to Kieran, Kieran then responding. Each of these shots were clear but had to be re shot because of laughter and speech. After we fixed this we went into another room (the interview room) to film to shots of Charlie Ann. Before you see this you see a match on action shot of Emma walking through the door. Wednesday 27th November We carried on with the rest of the shooting for the film. Starting off with Charlie filming the rest of her interview dialogue with Emma. Once we had finished this we worked out how we were going to end the filming. As we worked this out we filmed some more shots that would fit in and make up for time. This was the shots of the rattling of the door handle and the lights flickering on and off. We then shot the ending of the film. Emma trying to get out the door to see Charlie looking through the door. You then see Charlie walk off into the dark.
Monday 9th December After putting all the footage onto the computer and editing it all with music, sound effects, transitions and titles. When we got our feedback we were told that the lightening was bad on a few shots. This meant we had to re shoot more so that it would be perfect for our end opening. The shots that we redone on this day was Charlie in the interview room from a CCTV angle. The other shots we couldn’t film in lesson time as the location we are using for the filming was being used. Emma re shot the shots that she was in with a better lighting after school.
Tuesday 10th DecemberThe shot that we filmed on the previous day of Charlie from a CCTV angle had to be shot again as it was bumpy the previous time filmed. Before we filmed this we thought of a better idea to make the shot more effective.
Wednesday 11th DecemberEmma was able to re shot the rest of her role after school as the location that we were meant to be using was being used. The shots that she re done had better lightening and the dialogue was more clear. The shot that we made of Charlie from a CCTV angle was put onto a laptop for a better effect.
Thursday 12 December Emma, Charlie and Kieran filmed the last bits of the of their roles for the final opening. The lightening was better and the dialogue was clearer. More speech was added in and other shots were cut.
