During our third filming session, we worked on re-shooting footage to improve certain shots while maintaining continuity. When filming we focused on framing of shots and lighting as these elements of the previous footage was weaker compared to the other elements such as mise-en-scene and camera angles.
We decided to work on the section were Cara makes her way from her bedroom and walks downstairs. We decided to start off working on this section of the film as with this part of the house being naturally quite dark, it was easy to try and maintain the type of dark, ghoulish lighting that is a common convention within the horror genre, which is one half of the genre hybrid in which our film is labelled with (Horror Comedy). We maintained this dark lighting by trying to block out any light that was leaking into the shot through the use of cloth and other materials to block things such as windows and other places were unwanted light was being seen.
However, this session didn't go as planned after this as we planned to continue and film the rest of the film however as the space is much wider and we had to film shots from the outside, we couldn't film these while daylight was present so we had to wait for it to get dark. Unfortunately, it didnt get dark before 5 o'clock and this was when we panned to end filming so we decided to leave this section of the film.
Below are some of the shots we re-filmed:
The plan for our next filming session is to plan an evening where we can film during the night and therefore we don't have to worry too much about maintain darkness within the film as there won't be any unwanted daylight appearing in our shots.
