We decided to make a production schedule to keep track of when each member of our group and actors were available to film. This made it easier for us to organise when to film each shot depending on the characters we needed.
Friday 11th Dec (first day of filming) - film during lesson time as no other students will be around. Get shots of Holly at school, including in lunch area and corridors for extra footage.
Monday 14th Dec - Me and Viki take photos of settings during media lesson and found more potential settings that could be effective for our trailer.
Thursday 17th Dec- Filming on the backfield with whole group and actress Shauna for shots of Holly walking through the trees. Filming was cut short as Shauna had to leave for a lesson, with the remaining time we found music tracks for our trailer and looked at fonts for our intertitles.
After school we all met up again to film the night time scenes of Shauna walking home and across the field.
Monday 21st Dec - Met up outside of school to film shots of Natalie walking through an alleyway, close ups of Natalie and Amy etc and exterior shots at Lucy's house such as the doorbell and tracking down her street. It was raining so gave us the opportunity to get shots of the rain for pathetic fallacy.
We found it difficult to film during the Christmas holidays because we all had other commitments which meant there was no time when we were all available on the same day to film. We instead used this time to do further research and planning before we gave back the camera and began the editing process.
Monday 4th Jan - Me and Lucy met up outside of school to film shots of Michael as our change in actor meant we had limited time left to get shots we needed of him. We also got shots of Holly in bed and at home, using Lucy's house as the setting.
Wednesday 6th Jan - The whole group, along with all of our actors, went to the park to get shots on the swings and footage of Amy being attacked on the back field. We filmed until approximately 5pm as this allowed us to get footage when the sun was out but also after it got dark.
Thursday 7th Jan - This was our last day with the equipment so we met up after school to get any final shots that we thought might we useful, such as extra exterior shots and Holly at school.
