Production Blog: Finishing Filming for our Opening Sequence
Hey bloggers welcome back! Today we have a lot to look forward to. We recently completed the filming for our opening sequence. This second filming session was harder compared to the first as we had to make use of weather and time throughout our filming process. Making use of storm clouds and wind was hard as we had to wait for the weather to be right. It's also very hard to film with this weather without it looking weird and messy. We also had to change settings multiple times and even had to film on the road. We made sure all of the filming was as safe but also as smooth as possible. Working at night in the woods, we came up with a safe word to make sure everyone was comfortable We also made sure to stay within at least 100 meters away from each other to not get lost. The camera man would also wear a bright orange traffic control vest so if we did get lost we could easily find the camera and group back there. We also bough a flashlight for the entire group to use so that in between scenes we would not trip or fall. We also bought plastic casing for the camera and all of our phones. We did this to prevent water damage from ruining our footage and damaging our own devices. Acting in the dark was much easier because we were actually scared so it wasn't all acting. The acting looked much more natural but it made the filming more stressful. We kind of rushed the filming process due to this. The previous filming session, we had several retakes but with this session we tried only filming scenes 2-3 times at the very most. We are very happy with what we filmed and I believe it is a lot better than our music video. We have improved a lot. Thanks for reading bloggers!
