How we doing so far..

We have filmed all of the random people interviews, after a few attempts we went for the hand held camera as this gave the best effect that we wanted but was still good to watch.

We have also recorded the non-diegetic sound of a boy saying "mummy" to edit in after shooting a break in scene. We chose to do it this way so that it was clearer and we could time it better.

We have also filmed all of the house break in scenes. We did this using to mainly stationary cameras tracking Pauls movement as we felt a lot of handheld shots wouldn't create the Short that we wanted. We also noticed that a dog barks in a few of our shots, while this added to the realism of it we didn't want this in but thankfully we are going to dub the voice overs over the top so this was no problem.

We are now looking to shoot the interviews and police station scene. The police station scene is proving difficult to film as none of us can drive and getting to it during daylight hours is harder than we thought but we are sure we will find a way.

I am glad we decided not to stick to the script that much and use it more of a guide. I think this made it more realistic and some of the shots we filmed on the day worked much better than the ones on the script so if we restricted to the script then our Short wouldn't be as good.
