Filming Day 3

    Today we were back at it again with the production of our short film and the filming of the silent film, comedy, and the horror film. 

    We began the day off immediately with the silent film scene which of one of multiple scenes in a montage segment so it should have been much quicker than it really was. It took much longer due to the fact that we were filming on the street with cars and people appearing from seemingly nowhere with the only purpose but get into the shots and make noise. We had some serious bad luck with that shot but we were able to get it out of the way and move onto the comedy scene. This scene was the bulk of our filming for today as it had more dialogue and took some time to set up all the lights. The lighting was set up to mimic that of a sitcom inside a house and was really impressive with all the lights propped up around the room. The equipment that my group got was a massive help in this scene and wouldn't have worked without the lights they were able to get.


    The last scene for today was the horror scene since we weren't able to finish it yesterday. We had plenty of time as we finished all our filming for the silent film and comedy scenes before the sun was close to setting. Once we got to the park we were shooting at, we set up all our equipment and walked towards a sections with a lot of trees that was perfect for a dark horror forest. Luckily, we were able to get the last shot when not even a minute later, it started to pour down on us and forced us to end the day there. We rushed to the car to make sure none of the equipment was damaged especially when most of it was not even ours. At the end of the day, we were able to film everything we wanted to and with the horror scene done, we are back on schedule to finish tomorrow.
