Re-Shoot

We have decided to have a re-shoot which will be done in the Christmas holidays. This was done after we put the whole sequence together and realised that a few shots didn’t work well once in the sequence. We also had a few problems with lighting in the last few shots of the sequence because we ran out of time and it had got dark by the time we shot these.

We also had other problems such as the bed covers being too prominent and feminine. So as have decided to re-shoot the nightmare sequence with plain white covers so as not to distract the eye of the viewer and fit with the masculine view of the main character.

As a group, we have decided to change the shot of the character going down the stairs to make it shorter and therefore less boring. We chose to shoot the last few steps of the stairs and let the character walk into the shot and then pan across to the door of the bedroom. This takes out unnecessary footage that isn’t needed. The other shots that we have to re-shoot are the shots of the news broadcasting on the television and the reaction to this of the main character.

We have arranged 2 shooting days just in case we don’t finish in time on the first day. Hopefully this should be our last re-shoot and then we can just concentrate on editing.
