Our location for filming was an abandoned building on a hill at the edge of Royston. When we arrived on set we did Jack (the actor)'s make-up as we wanted him to look wounded and in pain. We then cleared the set and put out our props, the medical utensils and used fake blood to make them look authentic.
We faced a few problems. For example the building we used was too dark at first so we had to use phone torches to improve the lighting. We also forgot to bring chains or a rope to tie up Jack's hands so we had to cut out a shot where he unties his hands and replace it with a new over the shoulder shot of Jack looking out of the window.
It was also raining quite heavily on the day of shooting, which although looked quite authentic, meant we had to be careful about the camera getting damaged. We therefore used two umbrellas to keep the camera covered at all times when filming outside.
Furthermore it was very muddy, meaning that it was difficult to get to this building, We got very muddy and some of us fell a few times.
Even though we where faced with problems, we overcame them, and looking at the footage, we hopefully have enough so we don't have to go out filming again!Labels: China, Emma, Matt, Tom |
