Filming - Saturday 13th February.

On Saturday 12th, we filmed all the outdoor scenes and the rest of the indoor scenes, as we started filming in the morning.
Our first shot that we filmed was the point of view shot, which would be one of the detectives walking up the stairs. We all, took turns on filming this shot using the hand held technique so we could get the best clip and angel of it and to allow us to have a variety of clips to choose from when editing.
Our next shot that we filmed was all the props around the bath, such as the syringes, which went all to plan. We also added in a few shots of the tap running and shots of a hand getting the needle ready, which will be part of the flash backs. We had to film this many times due to Lauren’s little brothers and sisters making noises in the background, but apart from that it all went to plan.
We then filmed Beth in the bath, who played the part of the Immersed Angel. We got Beth to put on some mascara and eyeliner to make her look more freaky and dead. This was shot 14 and 15, which went to plan and looked really good, especially with the makeup running down her face.
The outdoor scenes were filmed next; we did change this a little bit. Lauren did not have any flowers for Beth to pick, so we firstly filmed Beth walking around the tree and to the planned spot where she will stand. Followed by a shot of her standing in the planned spot and then a close up of her suddenly turning around, which looked really good.
Instead of filming the over the shoulder shot of the detectives talking, (due to not having the other detective) we got the un-professional detective to drive in his car and have a conversation with the other on his phone, saying that they will meet inside. Followed by a shot of the car driving to the house and then a long shot of the detective walking into the house. These were our last shots of filming, which went well.
Overall, despite our disruptions and changes that had to be made, our filming went well and we ended up with some shots, which we are very proud of, such as the close up of the Immersed angel, turning around.
