Filming Process

In preparation for filming the animatic as a live sequence we ensured we had actors, location and equipment/props ready.

However, we did face many problems filming the actual sequence.

We were forced to change he set we had originally planned to use, due to reasons we were not initially aware of. This meant that we had to re think our layout of certain scenes when it came to filming. For example, which side the actors would be facing, taking into mind the change of set and scenery.

However, we think we successfully overcame this problem quickly, and soon found a similar location, using any resources we had.

Once we had the actors and props in position, our next challenge was keeping to the 180 line.


Even though we both have had good examples with filming before hand, it became harder to remember the line when we actually had to think about it. Before, we had just filmed away, and now we had to re think certain shots to make sure they ticked the right boxes.

In regards to the storyboard sequence, we had to subvert from what we had originally had in place, due to time and circumstances. This, however, proved to be not too much hassle, and we think we successfully handled the situation and made the best out of it.


My main target next time I am filming, will be to keep an eye on the 180 line and make sure I have the correct side mapped out.
