This week me and my partner done a mix of production and post production. In one of our locations which is the library, we were unaware of the closing times and once we set everything up we found out we had only 15 minutes left before the library closes. So in that time we had to quickly rush through and do 8 shots of filming within that time. This proved to be a challenge, however we just managed to do what was needed although more time was needed to check everything is ok. We also had to do some re-shooting of the park scene as my teacher commented more facial expression is needed to create more impact on the lead and only character to fully show his anger.
Another issue with filming in the park scenes were the use of handheld, because it was difficult to keep it steady and maintain whilst following the character. To solve this issue my partner and i decided to use a monopod to create more static and less jumpy shots. This is very useful as it makes the camera easier to control and more static. This allowed the film to run more smoothly at the time of editing.
Also for the library scenes the character speaks through a voiceover and this was recorded through a voice memo on my iphone. There was a small issue with getting the character's voice right to match on screen. It was difficult to say the lines whilst retaining the emotions felt by the character. In the end we got there by practicing with my voice to suit the style of the film, which didnt take up too much time.
