Thoughts on the day of filming and editing

We had to improvise quite a lot on the day of the shoot as we did not realise how small the rooms we were going to be filming in were, which made some of the angles and distances between the camera and Chris quite awkward. We experimented with different camea positions (for example, through the window and taking the camera off of the tripod) to find the most natural angle we could film at. It stopped raining halfway through the day, so we had to refilm the opening scenes to keep continuity.

The had some problems in editing the opening together as we did not know how to add titles onto it. We hadn't filmed some transitional shots so we had to use cutaways to lapse enough time to make the scenes appear natural. There was a scene we wanted to use where there was background noise from a plane flying past, so we had to turn down the audio on that one clip so it couldn't be heard.
