Filming, Take Two

Our group decided together that it would be a good idea to film within school, as the offices would be easy to accsess and we could also film whenever we wanted. We talk this over with one of our media teachers and she suggested that using one of the art teachers offices would be perfect and I had agreed with her as I had already seen his office.

We all thought that this office would be really good for shooting in as even though it was lightly painted, the inside was still quiet dark where no sun light hit it at certain parts of the day, and this would be for getting the mood that we wanted, as our film was meant to be quiet dark and gritty. As well as this, behind the desk there was a poster on the wall that said "Keep Calm Carry On" as well as drawings which the teachers daughter had done, I thought this reflected the character in the film that we were trying to portray, as he is a family man and the poster "Keep Calm Carry On" But due to some complications, one of which was lighting, I found it very hard to light up the office with one very big light that we had borrowed from the art department, as we used this as a kind of spot light on Charlie, who was playing the main charactor in out film, but trying to keep the surroundings quiet dark as this was look that we had been aiming for, we could no longer film in this office, which I myself, was quiet dissapointed about as i though it would be a very good location even though it was quiet small.
