Filming for final thriller.

Today was the first day of filming which started around 4:30pm and the other members in the group wanted it to be finished at around 6;30pm the latest. I thought this wasnt enough time to complete the filming properly however i was outnumbered so i thought it was best to leave the situation alone and not waste anymore time. The time limit that the group was giving for the filming meant that i would be rushed considering that i was the main character.

At first it was a straight forward process until we started messing around and putting fun before our work. When 6;30 started to approach, Ashton started to get frustrated because he wanted to go and thats when i realised i was being rushed even more. Alethea started to get frustrated at the whole situation which placed me under more pressure which then caused tension bewteen the group. A lot of the work ended up rushed and the quality of the acting was at itz lowest, although we were told that we wouldnt be marked on this ; i think good acting would help to persuade the audience. Therfore i was not impressed!!!!

First off all i didnt have a good feeling at all about the outcome of the filming and had asked to watch over the recordings each time after filming but once againg we were working against time .
The scene that i was most excited to film was the medium shot where the camera was placed inside the fridge. This was because the idea was spontaneous and no one else had planned to do it. It also gave us a variation of shots to work with. However my excitement was soon turnt into dissapointment as that scene was also rushed.

The fact that we tried to do all the filming in on day was already enough work to mange let alone giving ourselves a time limit of only 2 hours. It may have seemed that two hours would have been enough to complete filming but it clearly wasnt.

By the end of the day everyone was left in a rotten mood but especially me . The only thing that i hope for is to have good enough shots to edit next lesson.
