Bedroom Scene Shooting

 Shoot Reflection #2: 

Last night was our second filming session, we already knew we would need more time to film in the second location, and we successfully were able to finish the first half of the film. Below are answers to questions about what we accomplished and what needs significant improvement. (The raw footage can be found below the reflection) Reflection and Summary Do we need more shots? Yes. We still need to film the establishing shots. Although we did finish all parts of the script and were able to film some match cut scenes. Can we make do with what we have? Yes, we made a large dent in the film needed to complete the project. There may be a few shots that need to be redone due to issues with figuring out timing of the camera. Do we need to re-shoot any specific shots? Of the shots we did shoot, majority was great. So, we will not need to re-shoot many any of the shots. With that said, we may need to reshoot additional shots dependent on if some areas do not look good once they are reviewed. Was the lighting okay? Yes. While it took us some time to get used to all the lighting equipment, once we understood all of it and how to control it, we were able to light all of the shots effectively. Was the diegetic sound okay? We used a ... microphone connected to the camera. When decided our original filming, since we were going to be close to the other members in the film, we thought it would be okay to use this type of microphone. We considered a boom box but due to the mirror in the filming location, it would not work. Overall, the sound was good and if there are any issues they can be fixed to make them louder in postproduction. Will we need to reshoot? We need to shoot the establishing shot and maybe get some additional film in areas that were a bit iffy. More will be decided once the footage is reviewed to see what we have and what does not look good. Raw Footage #2: After filming, we need to go over the shots and consider what needs to be altered. It is very important to show this footage because it shows the directors vision, and to appreciate the editing achieved in post- production. Here is the link to all our raw footage: 

It includes all the shots we filmed, even the unused shots. It contains all of them pre-color grading and before the editing.
