We went to the location to start our first shoot, we are filming at Alex's Aunts house because it has a garage with a perfect space for our main storyline to occur in. Alex, Danielle and Laurel met at the house with Hannah Rayner who is playing the part of Hannah in our horror opening. The shoot was very successful and we managed to complete a page and a half of storyboard, which was 16 shots. Alex's main role was camera work and Danielle and Laurel were in charge of continuity checking, lighting and directing.
The most creative shot we took was a birds eye view of Hannah walking down the stairs towards the front door, the vivid shadows in that shot connote the dark side of Hannah. However, we couldn't do our establishing shot because the roof of the house is at the moment being fixed and therefore it would have ruined our piece, nevertheless everything else went according to plan. Our storyboard was very important when filming because it allowed us to see which shots we had to do and the order of the shots, we would have really struggled if we didn't use it as it gave structure and organisation whilst shooting.
Today, (Monday 20th January) we are going to go to the location to clear out the garage and to hang up the cranes ready to shoot again on Friday 24th January and Sunday 16th January. When shooting on these two dates we are going to keep following the storyboard to finish our filming.
