Finished Filming

We finished filming today after a total of 4 hours filming, however we didn't use the full 4 hours for filming because we came across a few problems and at first needed to practice our sequence and perfect it so that we could get the filming done as quickly as possible and focus on our editing.
We found that filming our shots over and over again really helped us when we came to edit because we had lots of different shots from which we could choose the best shot.

Filming

We started filming on Thursday 10th December and it went well however we didn't film alot. We then carried on filming on Friday 11th December and we came across a problem. We filmed between 3 and 4 on Thursday and obviously it was darker outside than when we were filming on Friday between 2 and 3, so this was a problem for use because the location we chose to film in has a few windows where light was coming through, therefore to overcome this problem we decided to shut the blinds and block out the light coming from outside, therefore it didn't affect our filming and didn't break continuity.
Unfortunately half way through filming we ran out of fresh tape, so to overcome this problem, we rewound the tape to the beginning and had to re-record over old unneeded footage.
