Filming Edit
We were struggling to find the a sutible text to use to we started to add in the credits that we wanted to use in certain orders so we didn't waste time. We wanted to have a black background in the beginning to give it some structure rather than it just going straight into the opening scene.
This is some more of our shots that we made shorter as they were over ten seconds long. We then made to make them six seconds or less. We also added in jump shots for the long shots that we couldn't leave out. It then made it more interesting.
We finally managed to find a suitable text to use that would suit the mise en scene. We then replaced all the other text with the new text. This was easy to do as we had already written the text on.
This is our initial edit and second edit of the filming.

We then started to work on the music which was difficult as there wasn't any music that was obviously matching our opening scene genre. We eventually did find a song called "slow motion" which we added in but we only included the but where the beat dropped in otherwise it would have made it boring and slow for our target audience. We also didn't add in the phone scene in the end because it didn't seem relevant and it was coming out as the quality we hoped for.

Dates of Filming
First Filming (2nd December)
We have just filmed some of our opening scene. Me and Katie met up with out actor, Rob, and we used a borrowed camera. Rob plays the character of "Zak". We stated to film around Thornbury outside. Firstly we did some shots of Rob walking past school and into school. We were going to include the sign of "The Castle School Thornbury Sixth form" but it had no relevance at it was taken as a picture so it didn't seem to flow with the video. We then filmed the phone however the time on the phone was wrong and didn't fit in with the timing in the opening scene. We had to redo the phone in the next filming. We then continued to film the wanted poster outside and showed the significance of it. Our second filming we focused on the beginning on the opening scene when he wakes up in the house. We tried to make the setting as accurate as possible so we designed the bedroom that way, we used Katie's house to do this. We then filmed some more walking shots in various angles. After we had to film outside the shop because they wouldn't let us film inside. We also re filmed the phone so it said the right time that fits in the opening scene.
Third Filming (11th December)
Our third and final filming too place at The Castle School Sixth Form Centre. We filmed our last frames of the scene in a classroom. We used several minor actors, one teacher and Rob. Our video was rather long so we had to edit most of it out.

Scheduling
-Due to planing free time with Katie I had to take some time of to get the filming done in order to have plenty of time to do the editing. This particular date was the only time we could do it in a resolve time.
-I also asked to borrow someone else camera for videoing so we could have a really good quality picture. I also asked to borrow a tripod for a stable film. This was fairly easy and flexible to get hold of
-We also had to borrow some important props which were sometimes not available and we had to re arrange another date to film. For example we had to use a specific red hoodie which belonged to someone else. It was being used for our actor, Zak, so it was crucial we had it or no filming could be done. This did make the filming difficult to pursue at times.
-We also had to use a classroom for our filming so we had to ask the teacher that was in our film if it was okay to use her classroom, she let us film in there
