I felt that this scene would be the easiest one to shoot, this wasn’t always the case.
When we arrived in the location there were many students/classes walking up and down the stairs so I decided to shoot the shots in the library, as there wouldn’t be any disruptions. I began to set up the camera and tripod, then I remembered that I forgot to bring the props which included both books ‘How to overcome depression’ and ‘Ninteen Eighty four’ it was a stupid mistake, because of time this mistake was costly. We couldn’t film after school because Dylan had drama rehearsals. So I then decided to sprint home to get the books, I said to myself it would take me 5 minutes but it took my 10. When I came back I was knackered it was 2:30. There was another problem that confronted us, the tape was full meaning I had to run to the media department and get another tape it was again very time consuming. I now overcame all the problems are we were ready to shoot.
We went over time, and despite the fact that Dylan had to rehearse afterschool he was kind enough to give me and extra 30 minutes of his time. We successfully shot shot numbers 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 68, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 71 and 82.
Apart from the small distraction of student walking past it was an overall success, we finished filming at 3:30.
However because of time we weren’t able to shoot the footage of him walking down the stairs and walking to the library, I intend to do this another time.
I forgot to bring these two books when shooting, this meant that i had to run home to get the book.
Dylan closes he's eyes in reality he's sleeping but the audience dont know this, it continues to the next shot which is of him walking home, the audience think thats what happens next.
