Film Opening Coursework. Second of the "Morning After" Filming Slots.

This was our second filming session of shooting the "Morning After" shots. This involved shooting Chloe Brock waking up in the middle of a field. Immediately we ran into some issues, on the day we originally planned to film, it decided to absolutely chuck it down with rain and we didn't think it would be fair on Chloe to make her sit in a field during school time and get soaking wet. So, we postponed it to the following week. Our second problem was that we didn't have enough of the 'fake blood' left over to use to we had to use red poster paints from the art department. It worked just as well, luckily. Our third and final problem was that because of the recent storms and flooding, the field was still soaking wet despite there being no rain for a few days so we decided to give Chloe a towel to sit on. It does not look odd on the camera and it could mean something later on in the film. For example, maybe the towel was a crucial element in the murdering of the person? Who knows.


Again, being in the location we were in, we had a chance to play around with a lot of shots as our space was not limited. It was also quite sunny that day so whenever Chloe looked into the sun, it made her look tired (because she was squinting) which is what we wanted as she is waking up! Again, Chloe was very co-operative and listened to everything we had to say.
