Shoot Day 4- Friday 22/2/2019

Today we filmed some of the more interesting scenes involving the character's individual hallucinations after taking drugs. The first that was filmed was a hallucination from the character, Danny, who believes that he has become a  chef and has his own cooking show. The scene involves him talking to the camera directly and showing the 'viewers' how to boil and egg. After doing this, a mysterious dark figure appears behind him and the scene cuts before Danny is taken away.

Filming went relatively smoothly for this scene. The only real problems sound-wise was the noticeable buzz coming from the fridge in the kitchen area. This area also caused more of an echo, however, I was stuck either behind or beside Jason as the Kitchen area was quite small and I would be seen if I stood anywhere else (again making the argument of use a Tascam redundant) so I couldn't get much closer to nullify the echo as much as I'd have liked. I feel I will need to fix the sound for this scene during post production.

Some more smaller scenes that take place in the dining room of the house were filmed before we moved upstairs to which serves as a supposed separate setting as the character, Sam's, bedroom.

This scene involves Sam's own hallucination where he wakes up from bed, opens the curtains and goes to exit the room, only to be met by the same mysterious dark figure that had captured Danny. While the scene was simple enough to film and capture the sound for without no real problems except for some crew members talking downstairs, I started to think about the sound that I would incorporate during post production. I imagined a jovial soundtrack, such as those found in certain comedies or even in some type of anime.

Here is an example of the type of music I would have imagined to go with this scene:

Also the various sounds within the scene could also have a strange reverb or echo in oder to enforce the fact that everything present in the scene is all just in the character's mind.
