Shooting Day 4
To add a more substantial ending to our opening scene we decided to continue the plot, so that as the actors face isnt revealed, this then changes to a point of view shot showing her journey to a 'server room' in which her other gamer friends are there hanging out. Props used for this shoot were a collection of retro game consoles, headphones, textbooks, food wrappers. The mise en scene of this room worked well with the overall theme of hacker/gamer.
We experimented using 2 cameras, one on a tripod, and one being held by the actor herself. However none of these angles got the desired shot, and so we decdied that it was best for me to run behind the actor as she ran upstairs and through the door, and then she could smoothly transition to being on screen as I held onto the camera and zoomed into the computer sceen. This created a very smooth continous shot and resulted in a clean and concise ending.
