Filming day one
Today we started filming our thriller, we had originally planned to film at Bramcote and at toms grandmas but we decided to change our location as Bramcote was further than we wanted to go, so we decided to film at a closer location (school woods and run down building) which was also perfect for what we wanted to achieve. Once we got to the woods we spent the first 15 minutes on deciding what order we were filming in and the best parts to film in. we completed a number of test running shots and then performed the real running shots from both behind myself and daisy and in front. We then went onto close ups of each of our faces to show our reactions to what is happening. Once we finished each of our shoots within the woods we went to our second location which was an old run down building however when we got there the entrance had been blocked off therefore making it impossible to get it, this was a huge set back in our filming day as it meant we had to re-consider a new location. As a group we discussed areas such as the school barn, class room, drama room etc. we decide to go to a class room as we thought it would give us more privacy and we could move tables and chairs out of the way. We then started to film as originally planned and everything went well, however when we watched the shoots back it looked extremely unprofessional as you could see other school tables and chairs as well as cabinets and shining light though windows. So we all agreed we wanted to re-shoot at a better location which was within my garage.

Filming day two
We decided to re-film certain areas to improve our thriller opening. We went to the school woods and set up the tripod and camera and then created a panning shot to show the setting and atmosphere of the woods this part is going to replace the establishing running shot which we quickened which became poor quality.
Another section we re-filmed was the last abduction scene we arrived at my house and got set up in the garage, we made an area in which would work well for the particular shot we wanted to achieve. This included a small tight area with dim lighting; we had props such as planks of wood, covers and tape to cover our mouths. I believe this scene is a lot better than our other attempts as there are no props that suggest we could be in a garage rather than a rundown building.
