- Day 1 of filming
So i have finally started recording the film opening of ———. Day one was very productive and went really smooth. I completed scenes 1 & 2 about 90%, and honestly i went way better than i expected. Luckily it got dark super early when i started filming and it enhanced the setting of the filming area. So the actual place that i am filming is in my mom office, because it has a big desk and is a super dark room. Considering the character Lukais is trying to find the cure for cancer you would expect his work space to be messy. So in order to push that concept i took files, mail, checks, basically anything that looked important. And it turned out perfect. Aswell as the lighting. My dad has a bunch of camera gear so i used lighting tools he had and it really made the shots look better and more mysterious if you would. https://drive.google.com/file/d/16La3dvWqrf3c7VFIscZCjCBUIL7NcsyO/view?usp=share_link
So, while filming i did run into one problem well two. So while filming I realized right before the scence where lukais is showing hacking or typing on the computer and the green reflect off his face and glasses. Yea so I didn’t think it through. The monitor that is in the shots is not plugged into anything so i had to revise. At first there was a tv in the office so i went onto YouTube and searched up hacker videos and it look horrible. So then I remember i had a laptop and went onto YouTube and searched up the same thing and slightly changed the angle of the filming and it turned out even better than i could imagine. It was so perfect that all you could was see my upper half and my fingers making the movements of typing and nothing in the backround so in the end it turned out really nice. The second problem i ran into was the tripod. This tripod dint not like to stand straight or pan right and left smoothly. And most people would wield the camera with there hands but my filing is so shaky so i just had to deal with that tripod.
During filming I actually had my cousins to help me film so thank you to them. But anyways we ended up filming multiple different versions of every scene. For example, when lukias turns on the radio we filmed one from a high angle showing more of the arm. While ion comparison we filmed this extreme close up from the side and only showed the fingers Turing on the radio. The reason i did this was so that we had variety while editing. So just in case we decide we didn’t like it we had a back up option. The video below is the examples.
