The day of the shooting...

On the day of our thriller recording, we had all decided to meet at 11.00am, this meant we did not have to get up too early but we'd still have time to get everything done at a good time. We would also have to walk there, it was not a short walk to get to the fen and we all lived within the same area, so there we no issues with not getting there punctually. Inside our time frame, we were able to get some practice shots before the real thing. As we arrived, we worked out exactly where we could place the problem in order to not break the 180 degree rule - something we had a slight issue with last time around. We had the shooting script on us, so we knew exactly where we were going to be and didn't have a problem with the timing. We finished earlier than we expected, so we were able to have some different shots to allow us room for manouvre when editing.

These practice shots allowed us to see how the film may look, both in night and day, and gave us an insight into how we could change anything if we had to. In the dark, the white mask can be seen vividly in the dark which is a good effect. In the light, it blends in with the sky so it is easily missed - we did attempt to remedy this but the fundamental issue was that the mask only pops out for a second and blends in with the atmosphere.
