Production: Filming Day 1 (04/11/2016)

For our first day of filming, Amber and I decided to begin filming the earlier scenes in the short film as we had planned to do in our shot schedule. We also decided that it would be ideal for us to test out shots in different lights and locations throughout the house, as this could give us some new ideas for extra/new shots with inventive lighting. The first 10 scenes (excluding the opening establishing shot due to the outside lighting being to dark for the character to be seen when we filmed) we shot, equating to around 1 minute and 15 seconds of footage.

We also took the filming day to shoot some possible photos for both mine and Amber's ancillary posters. Many different shots were taken in order for both of us to have a large selection of poster pictures to choose from (see right of post for ancillary option).

In terms of issues with our first day, since the first shoot I have had my hair cut, so unless we can incorporate a hair cut of the main character into the plot, then we will need to re-shoot the shots where my hair cut is visible. Also, certain shots contain moments where the camera loses focus and so these will need to be re-shot as well.
