Walthamstow shoots

Today and yesterday were spent in Walthamstow shooting the chase sequence. We were very near to Eva's house and that meant that the shoot day was very easy to work with. We got some very effective footage and I'm very happy with everything we shot.

The key shot that we wanted to get was of Eva with the contact lenses in. The shot was difficult to frame and position, due to the fact that Eva had to turn into shot without being able to see, because we wanted her to turn with her eyes closed.

Today was a much more productive day. We improvised an entire section and it worked brilliantly. We stuck to the style of shooting that has been working for us so far, namely: shoot it from 100 different angles and one of the shots will be good. This will give us a variety of options when it comes to editing and will make for a better video in the end.

Again directing was something I was worried about. I really had to make sure that the actors weren't too tired from running back and forth while also focusing on time restraints.
