Day of Filming

On Sunday 17th November, we did all of the filming for our trailer. There were 7 of us who went to Charli's house and we started the filming at around 12, after getting the script sorted and ensuring everyone knew what they were doing in what scene.

Charli started off doing the make up, and after the first had been done, me and Lois went to film that scene, while Charli did the next person. This worked out well because it was giving us more time to leave for the scenes later on in the trailer, in which we could all help with.
With each scene that we filmed, we all had a turn at trying it out, to see if we wanted to perhaps change the angle or the lighting within the frame. This helped to give us more footage to choose from so we can all make the final decision on which one we liked the most.

We started filming the outside 'dark' scenes at around half 5, but had to ensure that whatever was being filmed could be caught well on camera, because lack of lighting often made it difficult to see if the scene was successful or not. Some worked really well, and we used the torches on some of our phones to help light up the scene a little bit, while at the same time creating a scary atmosphere. Some scenes we had to film again or change the way in which they were filmed, to ensure that we were creating it as successfully as we had anticipated.
