Shooting: Day 3

This day of shooting on February the 16th was only brief and we did not even need to call Ebony to re-film. We realised we really did not like many of the shots in the bedroom scene as they were too shaky, unfocused, had continuity errors and overall looked very unprofessional so we went back to re-film those panning shots. Additionally, we did not like how the character's room did not appear like she lived in it so we decided to remove the blue rug from beneath all the props that we had tracking shots over. We thought this would eliminate any evidence that a boy actually lives in this room.
As before, we were having difficulty filming the dropping of the cigarette packet to reveal the title "ROADS" on it as it would not fall naturally into the position we wanted it to. The issue with using artificial lighting as well made us have strong shadows and it often looked unrealistic. To solve this problem we changed our own position at which we were standing to film in order to remove any possibility of shadow and it seemed to work. 

After a couple hours, we seemed to have got all the shots we needed to edit our second version of the film opening.
