R+P Post 18: Our Test Shoot

After confirming the dates, the availability of our location and actors, and making sure we had all the props we needed, we proceeded to carry out our test shoot.



The only main issue with the shoot was that Alistair had told us that he'd spoken with the female lead and made sure she was available, however come the day of the shoot, she told us he had not spoken with her, so that was a slight let down and I had to find a last minute replacement actress. This meant that we'd find it a lot harder to use any of the test footage in our actual final sequence if it was good enough.

It was very useful as we were able to fully test our lighting setup and work out what could be improved for the actual shoot. For example we noticed that we should actually change the lighting set up between shots to keep the dark shadows across one side of each actor's face.
Though we initially thought we'd lit the scene well, we didn't change the setup between shots, so the footage actually came out with many lighting errors, which we'll have to resolve by changing the lighting setup for each shot in our actual shoot.
The lighting on this shot was far too bright, and lacked the shadowing
we wanted on the character's face.
