filming log

Before filming, we split up everything that we need to film and when to ensure that we got it all done and stayed on target to complete our project.
We used to cameras to ensure that we was getting every time done and maximising the time that we have when actors was not being used, we would take them off and film other shots with them to get it all done efficiently and quickly.
the filming was over a period of 3 days, so we maximised our time well, we had left more time to film that it actually took which means we had more time for editing.

this is how we broke our filming up:


filming Log:
  • 18Th Feb- we planned to start our filming on this date, however due to heavy rain we had to postpone the filming to a later date.
  • 24Th Feb- we started our filming on this date, we filmed the opening sequences for example the girls walking into the woods, then them getting chased. we wanted to pursue with more chase sequences however due to heavy rain we had to postpone the filming to a later date. we started filming at 4pm after school until ten past five. we also carried out a lot of still shots, to ensure that we had some media to use for our posters and for our websites. so the first day of filming was a success as we left with a lot of good material to work with.
  • 1st March- During a lesson we decided to take a trip up to the woods to film sequences that we do not need the actors for, to therefore maximise our time with them. we took the first two opening shots, the panning of the woods and the pulling up of the car. we done these shots from a range of different angles to try and get the most effective shot.
  • 3rd March-on this date we finished all of our filming, we brought two cameras with us to maximise time and we managed to shoot all of the chase sequences to our satisfaction, then we moved on to the death scenes, then the final shots. we were very happy with what we had achieved in the hour and a half that we allocated our self as we believed that we would still need a extra day to finish all the filming off, this was however not the case.

We was really happy as a group about how quickly we managed to get all of our trailer material together in order to go on to editing and producing it. we believe it was down to our detailed description of what we need to film and how we are going to do it as it ensured that we left nothing out.
