Diary of both days filming

When filming on the first day we did not plan effectively and had to make a small change to some of the costume we had decided on before. This was a small blip that we adapted to instantly.

The next time we filmed went smoothly and we managed to get most of it done quickly. Part of our filming had to be filmed from across the road. The road was not a main road, and mainly quiet but when filming various times cars passed and blocked our view. This made it almost impossible to get the perfect shot, but we found it in the end after countless tries.

We had to use a weapon as a prop as our film is about a murder. We thought about using a fake gun or a baseball bat, but in the end we all decided on the stabbing of our victim and we had to use a knife. Our location was very quiet and we believed that no one would walk too far into the woods. A lady and her dog passed as we were filming and we hid the knife immediately and reassured the lady of what we were doing. After this we made sure we kept a look out for any other ‘passers by’ as this could of caused false panic if people were not aware of what we was doing and jumped to the wrong conclusion.
