Update 16/11

Today, I started filming my short film.

Only my main character was available therefore I shot some scenes where she is on her own.

Unfortunately, the weather was not cooperative; many of these were outside but it started raining. Consequently, I created shots where the camera was indoors and filming my protagonist through a window, which worked well.

Please find my video diary below...

 

I took at least 10 seconds of each shot, which is more than I need so that I can cut these clips to size, choosing the best part.

Here are some videos which I took today, before editing...



These will be used as cutaways in the flashback scene whereby my protagonist remembers all of her traumatic experiences.

My favourite shot is with the rain through the window as this uses pathetic fallacy to create sadness. The raindrop also mimics a tear.

The background noise in these will be cut out in order to be replaced with my sad background music, which will increase the professionalism.
