The aim of today's shooting schedule was to film all the indoor shots needed for our piece. We filmed our shots in the interior of my house, and used my sisters room to film in, due to it being more appropriate for the story line. We also used the satanic symbols, drawn by a friend, in the room to hint at the idea of the ''thing'' under the bed being more than just a coincidence.
We managed to film all the shots we intended to and stuck to the shots on the shooting schedule. We were also able to experiment with the mirror and how we could create different meanings with use of the mirror from different angles. We were also able to experiment with shots from within the wardrobe and the room altogether before the character had even entered, which gave our thriller opening more depth due to the fact that we had tried this alternative shots, rather than the average midshot.
We didn't problems with filming, apart from the fact that Jake couldn't make it, as we had planned carefully how we would work around things. The only challenging aspect was trying to ensure the cat did not ruin shots by making noises whilst we were filming, which occasionally proved difficult due to the fact that Oliver was new to him and he was intrigued. Overall, filming went very smoothly and we filmed the correct amount of shots to finish our film as well as some surplus shots to experiment with.
