Main post 9- Production

Below is a short video of feedback after shooting the production, it includes the issues which occured and how we managed to overcome these:

Even though the majority of the production went well, there were a few mistakes which did occur and we did not control, these are as follows:

Continuity errors

Most of the time during the production, we made sure that our costumes and make-up was kept the same throughout so we do not break the rule of continuity. However, because me and my group took a large break inbetween filming (due to weather conditions), some aspects of continuity were broken. For example, Laura in our group forgot to wear a cardgian in the second half of the filming which she was shown wearing in some places of the opening sequence.

Technical issues

We had the issue of missing sound in our production. At some point when shooting, we did not turn on the microphone which did not pick up the outside sound which we wanted. We did try and overcome this by making sure we placed the non-dieagetic sound when editing in the places where we did not have any sound.

Location timings

When we were due to film at a location, an unexpected meeting was using our location so we were unable to film that day. This did hold us back a little and left us with little time to film, consequently perhaps not allowing us to film to our ability.


Below show some images of me and my group setting up a shot which included the alien toy in. 

In this image we were testing to see what shots would be best with the use of this prop.

This is an image of me and Laura setting up for the shot where the alien prop fell out of the bag from the chair, we needed to make sure it looked as realistic as possible.



Me and Sabene looking through our storyboards and shooting schedule.

In our production, there is a shot where the two

characters are running down the stairs, and the camerawoman

has to be as close to them as possible without falling down the

stairs or injuring themselves. The image to the right shows where we

decided the camera woman should be placed for her and the cameras 

safety.
