Last Thursday and Friday we were not in school so we decided to use this time to re shoot some of the shots that we got feedback on from our first cut. Over the weekend we re shot the train lip syncing. This had to be done again as the lip syncing wasn't very good and the framing of the shots were not correct. When doing this again we made sure that we followed the rule of thirds and framed it so there is more room for flashbacks. After filming the scene on the train, we went to the golf club where we re-shot some of the poker scene shots. We started by doing the shots of the stairs. The problem with this was that we had to use a piece of material to block the light out of the windows and you can see that in the shot, so we waited till about 4pm when it was darker and shot it then so we didn't need to cover the window up. We then did an appropriate shot for my reaction after winning on the split screen shot. The new shot shows me leaning back and shows my reaction which is what we needed. Also we re-shot the spinny shot, we did encounter some problems when re filming this as we couldn't find a good way of maintaining the same speed when spinning it round, but eventually we think we got a decent shot. Lastly we did the exit from the golf club. The feedback we got for the shot was good, but I noticed that there is the shadow of Matteo on the right, so we re filmed this without any problems. On Tuesday, we will upload the videos and start editing on these new shots.


-These two images are the improved shots.-
