First day of filming

Seeing as we weren't happy with our initial opening we thought up a new idea running along the basis of somebody waking up in a field, having no idea how they got there and keeping it so the viewer has no idea either.

We began filming and started by filming some shots out of car windows. We drove down different types of roads, some being very busy, and others being reasonably quiet. Our intention with these shots is whilst editing our footage to speed them up to be used in the flashback Charlotte has. We filmed day and night shots so we have a variety.

As we drove past some fields we were planning on getting some shots in we saw an old fashioned red phonebox. Its not often you see these anymore so we thought this could be used in a flashback as someone could be running into the phoenbox frantically dialling a number. I was filmed running into the phonebox from the other side of the road and then we also managed to get our camera and the tripod in the phonebox so there was a nice range of shots. This differed to our old film opening as the shots were too long of one certain thing, we learnt that by using different camera shots it breaks up our opening more.





We then went to hillyfields and got some clips of myself running, and i ran through a woody, forest like part of hillyfields to capture some point of view shots. We then put the camera on the floor on the ground, this got some of the grass in and we got Aimie to run over the camera so you could only see her feet/legs running away from the camera.

All of these shots are going to be used in the flashback in our opening. We are going to edit them to make them very fast-paced so it seems very interesting and grabs the viewers attention instantly.
