Preliminary Coursework continued...

Once we had chosen the setting we started to film. We wanted to use a range of shots to give our mini movie vareity. We used point of view shot, high angle shots, low angle shots, shot reverse shot, close ups, long shots, over the shoulder etc.
We would have liked to add more to it but Simone and Lucy never remembered to wear the same clothes and the new dining hall either had classes in it or all the tables were set out so therefore we could not add anything more. We did however manage to get a longer shot of the door when lucy is looking at it.
We use two fade to blacks to give a dramatic effect.
The reason we asked two of our friends to act in this production so we could give our full attention to the camerawork so we could get the best results.
We chose to film in the new dinning hall because the lighting was good, this was important as in our pre preliminary coursework turn out very dark. This worked well because by showing simones dark silhuette against the light background it emphasises the fact that she is an evil character.
