The process of shooting has been challenging and has allowed me to experiment with different shot types. I have found that at the start of shooting i was not producing close enough shots, the consumer would feel distant from the characters, therefore i re-shot the majority of the first father-daughter scenes to add more clarity and more interest to the shots. One thing i found useful was the tripod, without it the shots i looked over seemed shaky, this was a very helpful tool in making my shots look more professional. I found that trying to stick strictly to the storyboard for the trailer was hard as i began experimenting with the shots and shooting what looked best in the moment. This is something i do not regret as although my storyboard was detailed it was a brief sketch of what i imagined and when creating the scene; certain things didn’t work out as planned, or i had to accommodate certain uncalled for disturbances, such as a change of weather etc. For example when shooting the fight scenes, a car stopped behind us while i was filming the action, however it in fact turned out to be beneficial as it was very dark and the striking head lights cast an effective light and a shadow over the two-shot. Certain things that sprung to mind when filming was the 180 degree rule...
