Paty and I got together and began reviewing what we had filmed last Friday, and realized that a lot of our shots were unusable. Because we're filming at dusk, we have a very small window of filming time when the sun is still setting but before it gets too dark. Filming outside changes a lot because every time we change the shot, we change our positioning and the lighting looks completely different, which we didn't notice until afterward.
The shots that we filmed inside of the car are fine because the lighting is consistent, and some of our shots that were outside are perfect, but there are some bits that we have to re-film because of lighting inconsistency. We now know that we have to pay special attention to that factor so we're better prepared for next time and can't wait to continue! We're hoping that we can get everyone together to film on Wednesday, and we'll start editing all of it together.
I love the way you are documenting your process. Your blog is practically flawless when it comes to discussing technicality and how you're going to accomplish and overcome your obstacles. However I think you should also begin discussing ideas for editing, such as sound which is major in horror films, like that when you're at the editing stage you can see the progress you've made from idea to product. I love your story!
