Day 2 Filming
During our second day of filming we have set up the workplace for the location in which a scene from the film will take place. The props were already set up in the room which was more convenient for filming over the period of production. We went straight onto filming, we have filmed all the office scenes in order to quickly get it out of the way rather than to come back to it which may cause problems. We have successfully filmed all the office scenes in many different varieties of angles, which will then later be used in the editing suite. This will ensure us to find the better shot in order to give an idea of continuity towards the audience. After finishing off the scene,we then put the room back in it's normal state,we were given a responsibility to clean up and put the furniture back in the room.
After gathering all our required equipment such as the camera and props, we proceeded to our next scene in the canteen. We filmed during the school holiday which was convinient as the canteen was empty which created a isolated envinroment. Everything in the canteen was laid out perfectly. A water cooler was readily available for us. We had to take down the posters around the canteen and add our own posters in,this will make the film more realistic and build up the tension within the film as the audience will be dragged into it.
We then filmed the corridor scene which was empty, clean and plain which created the same isolated effect. We used the dolly and tripod to track the main character as he moved down the corridor. The posters were up on the side of the wall, the posters were clearly visible and can be seen by the audience.
After two full days we finished filming and called it a day. We have left the uploading and editing for another day.

Day 1 filming
We have all agreed to meet on the 27/10/09 at the first location of our filming, which is the isolated street near the school. We have gathered all our props such as the costume of the main character, the posters in the background, the dolly, the tripod, a Sony HVE A1E with a microphone. This was then ticked of our checklist and ensured us to start filming quicker. We have then proceeded by sticking the posters on the wall, at the idea of the posters we thought it wouldn't suit the setting as it is isolated, however, it had worked very well and came up on the screen very clearly. The day was rainy and gloomy, this had a great effect on the film as it reflects on the characters mood and behaviour. We tried to catch the shots from many different angles in order to get a different variety of shots which can ensure us to find the best shot to include in our film.
We then decided to move on to our next location, when the main character enters the workplace. This location was located in the back entrance of our school, this had an ideal work style effect, with the brick wall and the glass doors, the glass doors gave us a chance to put our poster which will still continue to give a natural effect. We have successfully used a panning shot, however later, we were worried that the glass door might reflect our reflection on, not just the character.
We then filmed the opening scene of the character in the office,we have needed further props which was the clock, posters, desktop equipment. This was very easy to find, as there were these equipments lying around the school. One of our biggest problem was that the room we were meant to use for the office scene was currently under construction, however, there were similar rooms around the school. One of which was a room in the media suite which had the equipment laid out giving it a more natural feel, another advantage of the room was that it's small which gave a catastrophic and awkward feeling towards the audience. We've had many problems filming the scene as the location was in a small room, therefore limiting our shots of camera. we've managed to shoot half of the office scene up to the part when he is about to leave to get some snacks, however,our time for filming was up and we called it a day.
