Final Task: Progress

In the the last week we have filmed our new footage that we are going to use. Last Thursday we shot the first half of our opening sequence. We were pleased with what we had shot as we took more care when we were shooting and this time we used a tripod so the camera isnt shaking as much this gives the shots a more finished look. We have also included a range of shots this time including long shots and closeups as this is what the criteria asks. We experienced some roblems with the tripod as it was hard to turn the camera when is was on it. This means that some of the shots went wrong and this slowed down the shooting process becasuse we had to make sure that we moved it right. We sorted this problem out before we went to shoot for the second time. Also we wer shooting a close up of a phone to show a text message but the camera would not pick up the text on the phone because it was too bright. Manny also solved this problem by turning down the brightness on her phone and the camera was able to pick up the text message. But after we reviewed the footage at school we discovered that we can't hear the sound coming from the phone so we will add in the audio that manny will record off her phone.
We went out to shoot the second half of our footage last night. We filmed Manny recieving a text message and her running upstairs to the bathroom where the mysterious person(me) appears in the mirrors reflection and persuades her to take the pills. This did not take that long to shoot. The only problem that we encountered was there was not enough room on the landing to film Manny running up the stairs so i had to hold the camera instead.
We are now editing the footage and hope to have finished editing it by next week.
