Final evening of filming. by Sarah

For the final evening of filming, we had many shots that we had to shoot again from our first night of filming, and also nearly over half of the storyboard. So we left school at around 1.30 in order to be able to film all of these shots in daylight hours.

Firstly we made sure that our actress had already prepared herself for the shoot, as before hand this took a huge chunk out of our filming time. We also had a check list to make sure that we had all of the props with us. We started off by filming inside, and as it was light outside, we had to shut all of the blinds in order to create the same lighting effect as the first shots we took on the first day of filming.
However, we struggled in the bathroom as there are no blinds or curtains, so we had to take it in turns to block the light coming in by holding up a duvet to the window.
The filming itself went fairly smoothly, we had problems with our actress at one point when shooting her scared twitching eyes, so we decided to take that bit out of our opening all together.

Moreover, whilst shooting, we regularly forgot to press the 'film' button down again after we had finished in order to stop the camera from filming, so we had a lot of unnecessary footage that we needed to cut out.

Overall i think that our final night of filming was the most productive. We got the most done, and we were all also prepared for what was to come. In the first two shoots i think we were all a bit naive to the time it takes, and also the stress it brings to film!
