Production Blog: Filming

 Last weekend was our first day of filming. We began the production process last weekend. After school last Friday, me and my group all went to the filming location together. Once we arrived, we changed in to our wardrobe. After that, we set up the filming set. We then took a few minutes to plan our camera angles and how we were going to film each shot. We then began filming our first scene. Each actor got into their positions and the camera man into his. The cameraman then counted down like how they do on real movie sets and said “action!”. One of the actors then said the line that was being used during that shot. The camera man then switched positions as well as the actors. The next actor then said his line. We did this process the whole time we were filming. We sometimes even had to re-do some shots as actors or the cameraman would mess up. We also re-shot some scenes later on because we didn’t like how the shot turned out. We then finished up our first scene. After we were finished, we took off our wardrobe and took down the filming set. This concluded our day of filming but we still weren’t done yet. We still have a lot more filming to go. I am excited about how the final product will turn out.
