Second Day Filming Review

Filming Review

On the 24th of February, me and few crew members traveled to Water Eaton to film at the abandoned factory. As a group we made the decision to spray paint the credits on location. Sequentially, it follows the shrine scene which we have yet to film. Spraying our names gives us more opportunity for camera shots, angles and movements aswell as having an artistic quality.

Lighting
Even though we we’re filming inside, lighting was taken into consideration. Having no power source, involved filming at exactly the right time. This gave us a strict schedule to complete what needed to be completed.

Health + Safety and Law 
Filming in disserted factory can create health and safety issues. Having already scouted out the location, we knew which floors and spaces would be best for and most safe. As well as safety, legality problems arose. Due to fencing around the building, crossing it is ‘technically’ trespassing. This is probably why the police we’re called. Luckily we we’re one step ahead and out of the building driving off. However safety and legal actions will be carried out for future filming in said location. 

Opportunity
Taking full opportunity of the location was key. When walking around we found a bird skeleton and as our production is a thriller genre, this was a perfect scene. We also crept up on some perching birds that with load noises, made suddenly fly away.
