Filming Session #2

The aim of this filming session was the same as last: to film Daisy being stunned and capture a variety of shots whilst doing so.
Session two, in retrospect was much more successful as we we aware that the lighting had to been changed (made brighter), to do this we tried positioning a small lamp light in front of Daisy, also we moved any objects that were in the way from allowing the cellar light to reach Daisy. We found that once uploaded to the editing programme, that the lighting had improved significantly.
Problems we faced , though did not address as quick as we had hoped was our indecisiveness which led Grace; who played the character Daisy, to say "Can we keep going, it is cold". In this filming session we managed to capture the zoom in, extreme close up and the medium distance shot, which is all of the shots we thought of at the time. It is fair to say that we did a lot of brainstorming whilst filming, trying to think of more dynamic and interesting shots to film, also we thought of trying to film a heavy breathing sound so we could edit her breathing and put it in the background of the fade in and outs. This was to (hopefully) effectively to help add to the ambiance.
We still had a little trouble with the pan shots, due to the tripod, however we managed to try and film the shot in a handheld position.
