WEEK 4
Welcome back goldfishes, this has been a very busy week for our film!
Firstly, the week began with Tate, Zali, and I zoom calling to work out our rough script which Zali and I finished that night so that Tate could start working on the storyboard. That day, Zali and I also went prop-shopping to buy ingredients for fake blood, went to Bunnings for lighting, and to pick up our arm.
The next day, (Tuesday) we had our tutorial and opened the fake arm and saw Tate's storyboard. We then headed to Fort Bunkertrench to see our lighting in action and did a run through of some scenes and a script rehearsal.
Wednesday, Zali and I headed over to Tate's place between classes to test out our fake blood recipe which was more fun than successful however for the most part worked well, but Zali took the ingredients home and made a new batch that was more red and looked more realistic.
On Thursday we began filming! *insert noises of excitement* We all arrived at 7am in the freezing cold but with enough enthusiasm to bring the roof down... metaphorically speaking. We managed to get almost all the shots we needed from inside the bunker, minus the ones that would have had sunlight in them.
This week, we will be organising a time where we can get the last of the shots we need, considering we need to shoot at dusk/night for the rest of the scenes, as well as organising the shots we have and beginning to edit them, which will mainly be the job of our Editor/Cinematographer Zali.
Overall we had a super productive week and are on track for completing our film, we just need to find a time to shoot the final scenes and bring it all together. I'm really proud of how well the group has come together to put a lot of hard work and effort into our dream so far and look forward to continuing this for the next few weeks to create our goldfish-worthy film!
Till next week, keep swimming!
