Update on filming

Last weekend, we concluded our filming for our initial shots. We also filmed the 'hill shot' of Sophie clambering up a hill in yesterdays lesson. However, we ran out of time and had difficulty with some shots, so:

• We still need to film the 'static' shot that will conclude our trailer. Jess attempted this at home later on after filming, although she had difficulty with this. She did manage to film a static shot, but she noted that the shot looked blurry/tacky and you could see some of her reflection. Therefore, we will aim to re-film this, or simply find an image online of static
• At the weekend we ran out of time to film Sophie reading books on ghosts/paranormal/poltergeists, etc... so we filmed this in school hours on Tuesday. We also filmed a few reaction shots during this time, to add to addition possible shots whilst editing
• We had difficulty filming the 'laptop/webcam' shot. Whilst I could film well enough on the video camera of Sophie on the laptop, Jess' webcam did not record when needed, and then recorded the wrong scenes when mistakenly clicked on. We then ran out of time. However, Jess has noted after re watching the mistaken filming from her laptop that the shot didn't look visually presentable. Therefore, we are going to discuss re-filming this scene, or we may use the video camera to represent the webcam instead.
• We have also not had enough time to re film the stop motion 'arm scene' this week either. This is due to exams, other commitments, and other filming in our lessons. Therefore, on top of our other commitments in media next week, we are hoping to reconsider this shot; whether this being re filming it, using the one we already have, or deleting the shot from our teaser trailer.
