Filming

Two weeks ago we finished our filming for our opening sequence, it all went well and we all agreed on the angles composition and lighting to each different clip we made. We decided to use the location of my living room and use the corner of it, we made the room dark and covered all the natural lighting so we had the full effect of the lighting we used (coloured filters).  Throughout the filming we switched jobs and rotated so everyone had a go at everything, jobs such as filming, directing the shot and making sure the miss-en- scene was all correct, including lighting. Most of the shots were taken with a tripod and we used chairs when we did a very high angle shot. We also used the camera hand held to make the shots look more like its coming from the characters point of few and giving the audience the characters point of view of the scene, location and miss-en-scene. 

The mise-en-scene was quite simple but looked very effective we used an old looking wooden chair a small table and blanket for the main look to the miss-en-scene and we added candles old looking papers a clock and diary to the table to make it look like the characters domain to where the main themes to the film could have token place and planned. Most of the filming was done in the corner of the living room which meant we could easily change the camera angle and not need to move all of the props around and never brake the 180 degree rule. Also some of the shots were taking on the street and in the garden just too add a difference to the sequence, we then added effects in final cut to make these shots fit in with the other shots and make them fit the pot of our movie.
