Diary of a Day Shooting:
We filmed two thirds of our opening on the 2nd March. Overall it was a good day shooting, we got all the clips we needed to get in roughly two hours, we all talked through what we would do before every clip we recorded and then filmed it twice just in case something went wrong with it later on. A lot did go right for us because not many people walked past when we were filming it, we didnt have any access to a tripod so Harry had to keep the camera very steady when he filmed so there are no jerky movements in our opening. We filmed in a multi-storey car park opposite a police station which was good for the sirens that made the opening sound more creepy. But this was also bad for us because a few people called 999 and the police came to talk to us as they thought we were going to perform a robbery, but we soon explained and they allowed us to carry on.
It was a good day filming, we don't need to go back and film anymore as we obtained all the images and videos we need for those parts of the opening.
We filmed the last third of our thriller opening on the 16th March. This part was filmed at an alley in Langdon Hills, we felt this was the best location for what we had to film as there was very little illumination and a mysterious long pathway as far as the eye could see. It took us about an hour and a half to complete the filming at the alley, it should have been quicker but we had to film the 'opening' alley scene at least 20 times to get it good enough to put in our thriller. This is because every time Harry turned the camera around I would be too close, too far or you couldn't see me etc. That was one of the only problems we had and was down to the illumination of the alley, but we felt we needed it that bright to create an eery atmosphere.
