On Sunday Alex, Laurel and Danielle went to the location at 4 o'clock. We went at 4 to prepare for the shoot and to make sure that the set looked exactly the same as last time ensuring continuity. We did any shots that we didn't need the actresses for. For example:
- we re-shot the shot of the music box closing as we wanted a more crisp shadow in the background.
-Also we attempted to do an establishing shot of the front of the house. The shot did look good however we are going to re-shoot it on Tuesday 28th January when it is slightly lighter to ensure we can clearly see the house, and then if we want the establishing shot to look darker we can do this in editing on after affects.
At 5 o'clock Hannah Rayner playing Hannah Dodds arrived and we began filming. We each had a go at filming throughout the shoot. Firstly we did a re-shoot of Hannah walking down the alley way, this shot was previously still and we thought adding movement of the camera would improve it. We received some feedback that suggested using more movement in the shot would look more effective. We tracked the camera behind her while she was walking and then stopped so it went to a still shot.
As we were shooting the section of the opening when Hannah commits suicide we used fake blood and a knife. It was quite difficult to create the shot when the blood was dripping down her neck as we were applying the drips at the same time as filming them. However I think we have got some very realistic looking shots.
-We also did some shots of the paper cranes on fire. To do this we used matches and set the wings of the cranes on fire. As they didn't catch alight as easily as we thought we used white spirit and put them onto the cranes. When doing this we wore safety gear such as goggles and had a bucket of water incase anything went wrong.
- After completing the shots of Hannah bleeding we had ran out of fake blood. We now need more to do the shots of the cranes dripping with blood. So on Tuesday 28th January we will create these shots.
