Filming log book



I have decided to start a different log book concentrating just on the filming and editing aspects of mine and Edens trailer.

14th December - We started filming for our trailer today but have already faced problems.Our original storyboard was meant to be set in summer so we could easily film without worrying about the weather or characters schedule. However on our first day it was very rainy and we were unable to film outside. I have realised how hard now it will be to film it in the winter and as most of our film is outside it will not get any easier .We will try to carry on filming and I will try my best to get the best possible outcome.


21st December   - Today we started the filming . When we arried at the filming location. The weather was very groggy and it became hard to film. The time of the day was  the time we had decided to film in to create the right mysterious horror feel.


4th January - Today we tried to film more scenes for our trailer. It was still a struggle as it got very dark and cold very quickly.However this helped us and now we know we need to plan exactly hat we want to do the next time we film which will hopefully be the last time.



9th January- We uploaded the footage from the previous filming sessions and realised we have one major problem : continuity . One filming session shona ,one of our actresses was wearing a blue coat but the previous filming  she was wearing a green jacket . We realised this the day off filming and thought that we could work around it but after looking back at the footage we captured I realised that it looks very badly filmed . This means we need to reshoot alot of the shots to film her in either one of the jackets which will mean going out for a fourth time which we didnt want or plan to do . However this time I will exactly plan what needs to be done ,what everyone was wearing and add more shots as the trailer is still very broken up . 



12th January- We need to wait until the snow melts to film again.This has set us back a few weeks and have really not helped especially with the amount we still need to film .This is not good and a major problem . 


12th February - We now have all our footage and are working with the clips we have!
