Introduction
This week we started and finished filming our introduction.
What I Did
We met at our team member, Piper's, house at 7 in the morning to start filming. We started with a debrief of our filming schedule and shot list. We then moved to our first location, which was outside in front of the house we were filming at. We made our first scene outside in the road. This was where the characters were introduced. Piper was the one running, and Vivienne was the one driving in the car behind her. We got many scenes of entering and exiting the car. There was also a mini "fight" scene between them where we see their relationship as characters. Established in this scene, we see that Vivienne is out to get Piper.
Then, we started our inside filming. There was a scene where Vivienne dragged Piper in the house to show a relocation of scenery. She then also gets dragged on the stairs, and this is where we decided to add the credits in editing. Then she got put into the attic. It was hard to film in there due to the low roofs and also the limited space to film camera angles. There is a short scene of dialogue where the audience gets a little information about why Piper is being kidnapped.
Then, there is a new scene where we film in the backyard. The house we filmed at had a dock and boat, which was the inspiration for this film in the first place. Then, Vivienne takes Piper down to the attic and out to the backyard. They then go to the boat, where I filmed from different angles. We practiced how Vivienne would push Piper into the pool because we only have one take for this. Then, she pushed her into the water. We also go to the scene where she took a breath out of the water.
Finally, the filming process was over. We did go over the clips throughout the filming to see if we needed to redo a clip or shot.
What I Learned
I learned that by making a plan and sticking to it or adjusting it if necessary is very helpful. This made our filming process go very smoothly. Also, by brainstorming beforehand, we knew exactly what scenes to film, and we finished filming earlier than planned.
