Production Diary 3 - Becky

Day three of filming- To avoid the issue we had last time with the SD card we decided to take out 5 cards just incase we didn't have enough storage on one of them we definitely had enough SD cards to film with. We filmed Allanah and our friend Sara walking home together laughing and looking happy. We will then plan on putting this footage next to me alone of the bus to show the contrast in emotions and help explain to the audience how both of us are dealing with what happened.

We were also able to film Allanah walking and going into her house. This footage will go along side the footage of me also going into my house and opening and shutting the front door.

we also went to Allanahs house to film the shower scene with the GoPro. We experienced some issues in the shower when it came to getting the right angle and keeping the GoPro straight as it had to be handheld footage and we needed to make sure that we weren't to close to Allanah or to far away as it had to match the bath scene which will be next to it on the split screen when the video is finished. To overcome this issue we made sure that we got lots of different shots from different angles that we are able to then experiment with when editing. We also filmed a flashback scene with Sara, in this we are dancing and all having fun this piece of footage will go after seeing me and Allanah upset to help explain the story so that the audience understand our plot.

We still need to film the park scene of us walking there and sitting on the bench finding the photos of me and her. we also need to film scenes such as allanah being greeted by her mum in a positive happy way and me being greeted by my dad and arguing with him, however these are scenes that we can film independently.

Overall for our 3rd day of filming I think we were very successful as we were able to film a lot in just 3 hours we now know exactly what is left to film and how we can use our time efficiently by filming independently when possible.

Production Diary 1 and 2 - Abi

Day 1 - Today was our first day of filming and we started at Becky's House. It took us a bit of time to get to grips with how to use the camera but after this we managed to film some of our shots. We filmed the shots of Becky on the bus and also her going home.

Day 2 - This day started off well as we had all the equipment ready to film but when we got to the park and started shooting various shots, the camera kept preventing us from filming because the card was full even though we hadn't shot very much. This was a big problem because after travelling all the way to the park with the equipment we weren't able to film as much as we would have liked to. Also it was very cold this day so the issues with the camera meant that we were becoming increasingly cold whilst trying to clear space we didn't have on the camera. We hope to have more luck next time when we film.
