Another issue that made the day even more difficult and stressful was the fact that some of the dancers had to go home and get their costumes.At this point,I became frustrated and almost gave up.However,I knew we had to get something on film. Therefore I tried to speed things up by firstly directing the dancers, in terms of the position, I wanted them to stand in for each shot.This also became an issue because the dancers were reluctant to move.After that situation the dancers then found it hard to portray the kind of vibe we wanted,because the background dancers were not enthusiastic or energetic enough.
The angles shot by Yasmin were also inefficient,this may have been because we were in a hurry. She only shot the dance scene from two angles;in front and a side angle. I think that we should have shot the sequence from three different angles to make the sequence coherent.Unfortunately Yasmin didn't take into account the shots we had planned to shoot.I think if she had listened to what myself and Becky were saying, progress would have been made. In the end the shots produced were too dark,therefore the plan is to film next week Tuesday after school.
On the next day, we filmed at Becky's house which I think went better than Thursday's filming.We were able to film in the amount of time we had scheduled.The only problem was the last couple shots involving the wheelchair leaving the narrow hall way.The scenes with the main character were quick and easy because he understood,what we wanted and delivered a good performance.
