We planned to film our thriller at roughly 5.30pm and film until we felt the lighting was not longer appropriate for the scene or until it was too dark to create any affect.
Unfortunately, Jake could not make this day of filming due to other commitments, so Oliver and I headed into the town centre to film part one of our outdoor shots. We took the basic equipment we needed (DSLR Nikon Camea, LED Light attachment for DSLR, standard tripod) to the location we had decided best to create the best feel and tension for the storyline.
We decided to film down by our local theatre as it had quite a sinister feel, and led to a bridge which we felt we could get some good shots on to coincide with our idea of harnessing peoples fears. These shots would be used for the first 45seconds (approx.) of our film and will follow the journey home of our character (a 17 year old girl).
We managed to film all our outdoor shots for this part of the journey without any problems, despite having to work around the public and them commuting home. We filmed a lot more shots than we needed for our thriller and shot many of the same shots a few times so that we could choose the best looking one for the final sequence of our thriller. However, our footage looks rather yellow due to the street lights in the area so we will need to alter the colour and saturation of the clips before rendering and exporting the final piece.
Overall, filming went as planned and did not cause any problems for us or the storyline of our film.
