Filming: Matt's Bedroom - Sunday 20th January

• When we were planning when to do filming, we decided to film the bedroom scenes at the first weekend possible due to the fact that the location was simple to get to and was not weather dependent, meaning that if needed, we could easily re-shoot any of the shots once put on the timeline.
• The camera set up was simple for this location, so it gave us a good opportunity to familiarise ourselves with the equipment, giving us a better understanding of how the camera works and how we needed to use it to get the results required.
• We stuck to the storyboard religiously while filming because we had many shots to do with varying camera angles and we wanted to film everything at least twice (if not three times) so that we had a choice about which shot to use.
• We mainly used the tripod to set up the shots, but we did an experimental shot where I held the camera at arms length as I laid down on my bed. Whilst we had originally planned this shot, we were not sure if it would look good or whether it would look too shaky due to me holding the camera myself.
• All the shots turned out really well and there should not be any need for reshooting anything, but now we are in the stages of editing, we may need to film some addition shots to fill any gaps on the timeline.
