Filming the mirror scene

THIS WAS OUR FINAL SHOT DUE TO THE FACT THAT WE WAS IN UNCERTAINTY WHETHER WE WANTED TO PUT A MASK ON THE MYSTERIOUS MAN, THIS WAS AN INITIAL IDEA THAT THE GROUP HAD WANTED FROM THE START OF PLANNING. HOWEVER FROM FEEDBACK WE GATHERED THAT THE MASK WOULD HAVE LOOKED AMATEUR AND CREATED AN OPPOSITE EFFECT TO THE THRILLING EFFECT WE WANTED TO PORTRAY. FOR THIS SHOT IT WAS A DIFFICULT ONE TO FILM AS THE SPACE WAS LIMITED AND WE NEEDED TO FILM IT FROM THE MIRROR PERSPECTIVE WITHOUT GETTING THE CAMERA IN. THIS SHOT WAS FILMED BY KAEJA AND IT WAS EXTREMELY HARD NOT TO BE WOBBLY AS THE TRIPOD HAD TO BE HELD IN THE END AS THE 3 LEGS WERE TO WIDE TO FIT IN THE LOCATION, THE CAMERA ALSO HAD TO BE AT A SLIGHT ANGLE SO IT WASN'T SHOWN IN THE MIRROR. A LOT OF DIRECTING AND OPINIONS WENT INTO THIS SCENE AS IT WAS HARD TO ACHIEVE A THREATENING ELEMENT AS SOPHIE IS THE SAME HEIGHT AT KIRSTY SO IT DIDN'T MAKE KIRSTY SEEM LIKE A VICTIM OR VULNERABLE JUST FROM THIS SHOT ALONE, SO WE HAD TO CONSIDER POSITIONING. SOPHIE ENDED UP STANDING IN THE BATH TUB AND ON HER TIPPY TOES TO MAKE HERSELF SEEM LARGER THAN SHE WAS. 

IN THIS SHOT WE EXPERIMENTED WITH DIFFERENT WAYS TO MAKE IT MOST EFFECTIVE. AS WELL AS HAVING FUN WE DID STILL GET THE JOB DONE. KAEJA IS DIRECTING AND FILMING IN THE VIDEO AND SOPHIE IS POSITIONING HERSELF AND HELPING KAEJA WORK OUT THE CAMERA ANGLE.

IN THIS SHOT KAEJA TRIED AT FILMING FROM A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE BY TILTING THE CAMERA WHICH CREATED A NICE FFECT BUT IT DIDN'T FIT IN AS WELL WITH THE SCENE THEREFORE WE DIDN'T USE THIS MOVEMENT AND POSITIONING. BUT IT WAS GOOD TO TRY OUT DIFFERENT IDEAS AND SHOTS BEAUSE IT HELPED US FIGURE OUT WHAT WORKED FOR US BEST.
