Final Opening Sequence

First Shooting

After our first test shoot, we managed to finish filming our opening sequence, taking us around 8 hours to complete.

 
Overall, we felt that we did relatively well however from this test shoot, there were a few problems which we came across. However, we now know how to avoid these issues hence making our next shoot run more smoothly and hopefully more successful.

 
Problems that we faced:
  • Reflections of the camera and group windows slightly visible in the windows.
  • Actress had very little emotion or reaction in the scene.
  • No full shot log, which did slow editing down a little bit.
  • Quality of the answering machine wasn't clear enough for the film.
How we are going to resolve them next time:
  • Be aware of reflections of the camera and members of the group on shiny surfaces such as windows.
  • Try and make the actress act more casual.
  • Take a detailed shot log at the time of filming.
  • Add voice-overs in after during editing.
