First Day Of Filming

First Day Of Filming

 

   The first day of filming did not quite go to plan, because we had to change location from the farmhouse to my Dads house. In doing that we had to change the storyboard, that itself was quite a struggle, we tried to keep it the same in some parts, e.g long shot/pan of the back of the house and shots of windows doors and possible enterences. When we got inside of the house to do the intreior filming, we didn't have to change that much the only things we really have to change is the putting the dress on the bed, because my brother or my dad did not have a dress, we had to use a teddy bear instead, which i thought was still a little creepy, can you imagine walking into your house and finding a teddy bear on the pillows of your bed, with the douvet folded over, and also a picture of you face down on a wooden chest of draws. 
    I know we may have done some things wrong or made some errors, but at the end of the day we are not A grade students, looking back over it i can see one thing wrong already, when 'Harry' was 'jumping' out the window, you can still see me sitting on the window ledge/sill just sat there when the film cuts out at the end, because i did not really want to jump 9-10 ft off the window ledge on to concrete flooring.
    There was also some small mistakes on the cameraman's end too, in one of the shots where i(Harry) opens the wardrobe to have a look inside and you can see him in the mirror as i open it, because you can't really stand anywhere in front of the wardrobe without being spotted in the mirror's on the front of the wardrobe.
     There was also another mistake that we had made, there was a dog teddy sat up on a chest of draws, we had filmed a scene where 'Harry' is going through some important documents of the girl 'Harry' is stalking, but in the next scene 'Harry' is going through the girls wardrobe and finds the same dog teddy in the wardrobe and puts it on the bed, but in fact it is the same dog teddy as the one on the chest of draws. So we will have to film that scene again as it's a continuity error.
