Filming Day 3 - Redoing Taylor's Indoor Scene

Today, I went out to re-do the indoor scene where Abigail is in her room and looking at herself in the mirror with the words written on this. I had to do this because the first time around, I had misspelt "lonely" and it wasn't very professional to edit this into the film with a spelling mistake on it. Whilst we done that, I also added in a reaction shot of her reading the facebook chat as this adds to how much we know about the way Abigail feels.

Filming Day 2

On the second day of filming, I took a morning to shoot all of the indoor scenes which involved Taylor. I again had the idea of where I wanted to go but once we started to film, it all began to lay itself out very naturally. I had to adjust the lighting a few times as I was mainly relying on natural lighting through the window but at certain points, it became too exposed and Taylor began to appear quite washed out. I blocked the light out to fix this and the room still managed to maintain a good level of lighting.

When filming Taylor, I was giving her direct instructions on where to place herself and how she needed to act in different scenes. It also took me a few attempts to get a good shot of the laptop screen as it kept flitching and going out of focus.

Filming Schedule

Both of my main characters are also filming their own coursework and have other commitments. Therefore, I felt the need to create a filming schedule so that they knew when I planned on filming, what I was filming, what they needed to wear and who I was filming.

I have had a good response from this, I have attached the schedule below.
