Filming During the Night

I filmed about two out of the two and half scenes we had left to film. We finish filming the rest of our short film. We filmed on a Sunday again, so my mom dropped me off at 6:15. To prepare I had brought the story board once again, my costume, an extra change of clothes, a charger, my iPhone and some extra snacks. I brought my costume for reshooting just incase something was incorrect with original. I let my mom know that Nicole’s mom had bought us food to inform her that I was being feed because I did not get time to eat before going. I was checking in every half hour to hour. Once I arrived everyone except me began changing into their costumes to get straight into filming the missing scene. Nicole spent about 15 minutes doing a bruised make up look in me. While she was doing that I reviewed every scene that we shot and all the takes to make sure that there is nothing incorrect. There was 3 shots that we did not shoot according to the storyboard but we did get it in the end, but I noticed they did not fit when I was editing so now nicole has to film them by herself with the help of a friend from dance. I began shooting outside to capture a three shot and it was almost gonna get dark soon so we had to hurry. I had forgotten that I had to shoot every scene at landscape so we did have to re-shoot a couple times. I put a sticker on the back of my phone that said “remind me about landscape”.  This was because I kept forgetting so, anytime I was filming one of the girls could let me know if I was holding the phone incorrectly. To get good quality out of filming I had to put the camera phone settings to 4K And 60 fps to have a smooth shooting experience. However as it was getting darker I had to re-search the best settings for filming in a dark area. I had found that 4K and 30 fps works the best. This was because any lower fps which stands for “frames per second” light increases so to get better lighting I would have to put it on the lower setting. While I was filming there was rarely any implications my phone did die but I did bring a charger to charge it but,  I ended up using Nicole‘s phone. I used her iPhone because it was a better model and had a better camera. When we finished I uploaded everything to my phone and then my laptop. I reviewed it and we missed a shot reverse shot so we must figure out a way to fix that issue.
