Thoughts on my Filming Proccess:

I was able to successfully film two minutes of my ten minute film on location.

The location was a small area underneath a lowered tree which made for a great space to allow a character to be concealed and for a secret meeting to take place. The area around the shooting location also proved to be helpful for several shots such as a character simply walking through and past the main location where the meeting in the narrative would take place with a wooded background which was perfect in terms of my setting.

The basic plot which was covered during this shoot was- Devon receives a job offer in a secluded location; the job is to perform a hit on a man named Baxter. Baxter later arrives but Devon has forgotten his name and has previously lost the picture showing Baxter's face. Baxter investigates him but is shunned away from Devon. Baxter's name is revealed and Devon realises that he is the target. Devon attempts to slash Baxter with a knife while his back is turned but Baxter foils him at the last minute. The last shot features Baxter's open hand approaching the camera (POV of Devon).

Overall, I believe that the shooting process was successful. However, I did run into a few problems:
-Lighting/ weather:
The clouds kept changing at a rapid pace, meaning that certain shots are either brighter or darker than others. As a result of this, continuity will be harder to control. To combat this, I will need to do some corrections through the editing process.
This change in weather also effected how much of a character's face we could see. Sometimes the faces were dimmed so several facial expressions may not be noticed by audiences. Again I will need to make corrections through the editing process.

I look forward to editing my footage. I don't believe that the footage is perfect and perhaps some reshoots would be necessary but I will first work with what I have already got to see if I an create a cohesive trailer that will put to rest some of my problems with certain shots.
