Before the holidays I began my filming for my trailer.
I encountered various problems pretty much straight away as my pre arranged
actors decided not to tell me they couldn't make it on day one of filming. This
wasn't so bad as I had the camera for three days, but when they again failed to
inform me they wouldn't be there for day two things started to get manic. On my
last day with the camera I filmed what I could using my classmates as my
actors (thanks to those who helped me out!), they did a great job
however the shots I captured were not exactly what I wanted due to the last
minute changes. It got dark quick and the location I filmed in had awkward
lighting, the alley was too dark and the street was too bright to begin with. I
captured a good shot in good light conditions but various other factors meant I
couldn’t use the shot. For instance, two men (possibly drunk) decided to stop
Tory and ask her if she needed help as she argued with Kevin. Although it was
genuinely real it wasn't part of the shot and interrupted the flow of the scene
meaning we had to stop and re shoot as it quickly got darker and darker. I have
re booked the camera for another three days, Monday - Wednesday next week,
where I hope to re shoot and complete my filming for my trailer!
