Filming Diary 4th February

This was our second day of filming, and this time we only had Matt and Louise, due to Keegan having prior arrangements. However, this wasn't a problem, because the scenes we were filming only needed to have one stalker in them at a time. We waiting until around 4.30pm to start filming, so that the lighting conditions would be the same as the previous week, which means that when editing, it will look like the same time of day, and follow onto each other more effectively. We started filming down by some old garages in Broomfield, choosing this location because of the desolate feel to the area, and because there were lots of places we could place the stalker where they would be hidden from the eyes of the protagonist. We did quite a lot of filming here, often filming the same shot twice, one of them having the Matt in the background, and one of them not. We tried to include various different techniques here, to make the film more interesting, including panning and tracking. We had a few problems initially with the tracking especially, because of damaged equipment, but managed it in the end. We filmed down Court Road too, although there wasn't as much time as we had hoped to spend on this because of the light again. However, we filmed everything we needed to at least once, and managed to also film the final shot of Louise putting her key into the door lock.
