First day of filming

We filmed for the first time today and overall, it took almost 2 hours. We filmed from 1pm-3pm as we wanted to use natural light coming in through windows. Morgan did most of the filming, Yasmin helped direct and I acted. We were filming the second half of our opening sequence at my house, and we had to film this half first because the clothes Yasmin and I wear get blood on them in the first half, which we did not want in the second half. We used our paper and youtube storyboard to remind of us what scenes we had to shoot.

First we filmed from the beginning of this half, with the camera zooming out of my eye. The lighting where we were wasn't great, so we used a LED camera light borrowed from school.

 This made the shot brighter, and it allowed the camera to zoom closer and stay in focus.


For one of the shots Morgan was filming from the top of the stairs for a high angle shot, however she couldn't just hold the camera as her hand was shaking. Therefore, she used a stabiliser and this made the shot steady.

We will film the first half of our opening sequence on Monday 14th November 2016 after school.
