Hello and welcome to my blog. Together Rosie Stocking and I have made a short film called 'Mind Trap' which shows a dramatised look into scizophrenia and the effects it can have on the sufferer. This blog will cover all of the work which has been done from the start of the coursework, where initial ideas were created and research was conducted, till the end, where the final main and ancilary products are shown and evaluated.

3rd November
Over half term we managed to film everything we needed for our short film. However, when we got back to school and rewatched the clips we realised that many shots needed to be refilmed. As well as this we felt that we needed to film more content (Lucy running, extra angles etc) to ease worries of not having enough footage and to make the overall resulting film flow better. We have arranged a 3rd day of filming and arranged everything we need with the actor playing Lucas and made sure that he will be wearing the same clothes. As well as reshooting shots we have decided that we are ready to take photos for our poster so we have borrowed a flip camera, tripod and SLR camera from the school. We made sure we could use a SLR camera as even though Rosie's digital camera is high quality we had issues with it last years coursework as the pictures were not properly supported by adobe programmes

Day two of filming:
Day two of filming was dedicated to the outside sections of the screenplay. we had to keep watch of the light and time as we had to make sure it didn't start getting dark while recording. Also, due to us recording in a public place we kept on having to re shoot sections because people would walk in from of the camera or be heard more clearly that any actual dialogue.
Due to technical issues we, unfortunately, do not have photos of the second day of filming.

Filming day one:
On day one we completed the indoor filming. We ran into troubles when shooting in the bedroom due to lack of floor space for the tripod. Laughing was also a reoccurring issue. However overall the indoor shoot went well. We decided to dedicate separate days for the indoor and outdoor filming to make sure we didn't run out of sunlight or have drastic changes in lighting from shot to shot. Inside this isn't an issue but it is when we get to outdoor filming.
