Filming- Day 4

For 4 hours earlier today, myself, Rachel and Ted got together to film a few more shots. As our last two filming sessions have not been as productive as we'd had hoped, we had much more planned today. Ted arrived at around 5:30 and we worked until 9:30, with a half an hour pizza break in the middle. In the 3 and half hours filming time we had, we'd planned to shoot shots 7-15, but unfortunately only got up to shot 12 due to some continuity issues. We noticed after shooting shot 12 that shot 9 would need to be redone, as our character was wearing his headphones round his neck rather than on his head. As he is wearing them in every other shot we have filmed so far, we decided we would need to re-film this as it would massively break the continuity and lower our grade. Also, we didn't manage to begin filming as soon as Ted arrived as we needed to replace parts of the set that had moved such as the laptops and any posters that had come away from the wall. For these reasons, we ended up losing nearly an hour of filming time, which is why we did not manage to get through all 8 shots.

However, today was the first time Rachel and I had decided to create a shooting schedule, and map out everything we had planned to film. This proved to be massively helpful and improved our efficiency as we didn't have to discuss what we were to film next.
