Second Shooting Day

Saturday 20th February 2010.

We met with the actress Emma Dawson at location at 12.00pm, and shot footage until 3.00pm.

Location:

Botanic Gardens

Props Brought:

- 2 small mirrors.

- Hooded Figure costumes.

- Camera

- Tripod.

Problems:

- We couldn't tell if the sunlight was too bright for the camera.

Solution - In the end it wasn't, it picked it up fine.

- Ground was wet, so we couldn't do 'picnic' style flashbacks and was hard to do ground shots.

Solution - We compensated for the 'picnic' shots with other playful shots and bared the wetness for the ground shots.

- Interested people stopped alot and enquired as to what we were doing.

Solution - We told them in a cheerful way with added hint of 'and we have to get a lot done'.

- A creepy Asian guy dandered around near us and stopped to punch a nearby tree continuously.

Solution - We tried not to look directly at him and carry on filming all the while watching our stuff out of the corner of our eyes.

What we accomplished:

- Completed positive flashbacks.

- Completed negative flashbacks.

- Completed individual hooded figure 'haunting' shots.

- Completed walking shots with the couple and contrasting 'alone' shots of the girl.

- Got some artistic mirror-themed shots.

What we still need to do:

- The street 'walking' scenes with the girl and the hooded figures.

- Conclusion where the girl sees sense and returns to apartment to her bf followed by white hooded figure.

- Scenes with hooded figures with boyfriend in apartment, including where he defaces the mirror.

- Ending where girl returns home followed by white hooded figure to see the message on the mirror.

- Where guy is on street followed by black hooded figure.
