Prelim Filming

a) We chose our filming location to suit what our scene was about.

b) We filmed the 180 degree rule by filming on the same side of the room for every part of the scene and we filmed the match-on-action rule by showing the door handle turn and then cut to the woman looking up then cut back to the doctor closing the door behind him. This meant that we applied this rule correctly because we cut out the action of the doctor actually coming through the door, but the audience automatically know that he's come through the door, without even thinking or questioning it.

c) We adapted our initial ideas by adding last minute things to make the scene more effective. This was things like prop; we used a lab coat for the doctor. This emphasises his role and makes his character more believable and recognisable to the audience. We also adjusted how the room was set out, to make it look more like a waiting room. We did this by putting all the chairs in a row and moving around some of the furniture. While filming we also adapted some of our initial ideas that were on our storyboard as we tried new things out and found better ways and ideas of filming whilst doing it, rather than we had originally thought.
