Last week on Monday which was the 7th December we decided to try to film one of our scenes for our short film but then the area was too crowded to film so we decided to film random parts which might help with our film while we are editing. On the 9th we got to film that scene which was someone filling a cup of water up and we used different angles and types of shot incase one of them don't work or we might need them. Another shot which we filmed is in another room and then we put moved the tables to look like we were in a classroom studying and thats all we would do as the teacher is lazy and they aren't doing. We made a sign to put on the door which said Keep out as the students is able to understand what the sign says and they won't leave the room. We did 2 types of shot at different angles of the teacher sleeping. One of the angles which we filmed were close up of them sleeping. We did a pan of the classroom and while the students are studying. Today we filmed outside of the building with different angles and part of the college. On Monday we refilmed some of the parts to make them better but it was a bit hard as people were walking pass at the corridor. Today we filmed in the classroom of students studying hard and the lesson was a science class. In one of the shots, it was a two shot another student walks in and sits next the other student and they were trying to distract the other one but it doesn't work. Now we have finished all of the filming we have started editing our shot film with all of the shots we have gathered. All of the footage is on Art media as it is an easy way to get the shots onto iMovie. On iMovie i've started putting all of the clips together but also finding sound effects which will work. One of the sound effects which is for the beginning of the film. Now we have finished editing our short films and rendering it down we are writing our evaluation and printing off all of our paper work
