At the beginning of the project, I had a clear vision of what I wanted some of the scenes in the film to look like. However, when we were filming, it was a huge challenge to film accurate to my vision. This was because of time constraints and the ambitious ideas I had.
Another challenge was improvising and changing some scenes due to the time constraint and the need to film all of the movie at school. We had to change the setting and lines of a variety of scenes to make it fit with what we were filming.
Surprisingly, though, we were able to finish most of the filming in the span of two classes. It was cutting it close, and it was quite hectic, but it happened.
One of the concerns I have is about audio. Some of the scenes we filmed had a lot of background noise and sometimes the actors would talk a little to quietly, so I hope the audio was still caught on the camera. Another concern I have is that the plot may not be completely clear to the audience. The story was complex in the first place, so we made sure to script and storyboard it very clearly and carefully. However, in the chaos, some of the scenes were omitted, and I hope after creating a rough cut, the plot will be clear.
I have the role of the director in this production, so I have found costumes, and put in my two cents about possible shots and lighting. I've also approved ideas for improvisations.
This week, we really need to crack down and build our rough cut so that we can spend ample time editing the nitty-gritty details, as those take the most time. We also need to film two short scenes to complete the filming process.
