Practical Log: Day 2 of filming 'Unknown'

During our second day of filming, we filmed a lot of footage that helped contribute to our final product. During this shoot, we filmed from where we left off (From the moment the protagonist makes her way to the door). This was difficult at first as we had to maintain everything that we ended with during the last day of filming. This included things such as costume, positioning of characters and props, lighting and setting/location. The most difficult aspect was maintaining the same type of lighting as we filmed at the same time of day but the weather was slightly cloudy and this therefore changed the natural lighting within the house. However, we hope to resolve this issue through use of colouring during the editing process.

One thing that we thought went really well was the conversation between the main character and the pizza man. We thought that once looking at the footage, it was well framed and we know this gave us the oppurtunity to use shot-reverse-shot within our film to show the conversation between the two characters.

However, during filming, we decided to add a part to the storyline where the main character decides that, after all the hassle, she wants to order a pizza. So we decided to film this addition to the storyline. After doing this, we looked at this section all together and we decided that we didnt want to incorporate this into the final film and will find a way to fill up this gap during our next day of filming.

Below are some of the shots we filmed during this session:
