Filming #1

The overall clips of captured were grainy as hell, as seen in my last project. We'll hopefully be re-filming on the 14th during the day so as to capture some more natural light. Filming with only three lights turned out to be problematic when the sun went down.

ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT FRAME BY FRAME:
1: The door is not in the centre of the shot. It also wasn't opened by the actor; she just walked through it.
2. It's just very bloody dark
3. This shot is supposed to be of the actor opening the bag and rummaging around. However, the bag is massive and we already had it open; the actor's hands weren't in shot so all it really looks like is a shaky worm's eye view.
4. Too dark
5. The glove are very out of centre
6. Lacks stability and very shaky, plus the actor's face isn't in the centre.
7. Doing a POV shot was impossible with the DSLR because of its focus settings, as well as shaky. I will have to try and find a handheld camera if I wish to accomplish this shot again.
8. Me lying there with my eyes opened looked comical.. I'll have to rethink this shot.
9. Again, it was hard to keep the actor in focus. The sound of wind also ruined a lot of sound; admittedly, the microphone wasn't used during this film either.
10. Okay, but still a little too dark.
11. Running after her still made it hard to keep her centre focus. Perhaps instead of running, she could just do a brisk walk?
12. Okay, but still dark and too shot of a clip.
13. There was a look at the camera
14. At this point, the sun went completely down so we were working with very little light.
15. Okay, but still too shaky.
16. The extra light from the phone worked well
17. Grain, grain, grain, grain.
18. Okay, but still off-centre
19. A glance at the camera, plus grain.
20. Good acting. Whaddup.
21. Graaaain. I'm going to need to bring along torches.
22. The strangles that we did film were all unusable. Hence, a vague ending.
