Shooting On Location Day 2


Reflection studios filmed two scenes today. In Crimson's room where he discovers Crimson isn't what she seems and Luke's side of the phone call when he calls Crimson.


We firstly set up the equipment in the bedroom area due to the bad weather in hope that it would clear up so we could film the scene where Luke is on the phone to Crimson, threatening to come round without explaining why. We briefed the actor to make sure that he knew what he was doing when and how. We gave him some time to read over the script and did practice runs with him to ensure he knew his actions and movement choices throughout each shot. Then we set the camera rolling.



                


















We later filmed the 'Discovery' scene where Luke finds out about Crimson's dark side however we were bit filming the whole scene until day 3 of the shooting. We then moved the camera and reflector outside however it was still raining! Reflection Studios discussed whether to go ahead with the filming or not. We all knew that we needed to keep to the filming schedule and so we decided to go ahead with the filming. It turned out the weather had a positive effect on the filming, allowing the shots of this scene to look darker and grimmer which added tot he plot-thickening atmosphere. 

One day left of filming and then its onto the editing!
