On the first day, we made a plan of what we were going to film and where. We decided we would go in order from the top, so we initially started with the first scene. Our plan was to know what location we wanted, what props we needed, and what characters we needed. After we had made our plan, we got everyone together at the same place and did a few test runs. When doing test runs, we felt that our original script that we made didn't feel right, so gave the actors freedom and told them to with the flow, after giving them the basic plot, outline of the story and a brief outline of that scene. In this session, we filmed the first scene is various different ways until we felt we had the final cut which was to perfection.
Scene one is the scene with Amy (Rojin Kazemi) and Stacy (Leah Coombes) which is shot in a room. The props we used in this scene was a mobile phone and basic bedroom elements such as pictures, a laptop and notepads. The filming in this scene is very limited at the beginning as it consists of a still long shot, keeping it very naturalistic. However when Amy receives a call, we use lots of different shots such as shot reverse shot for the conversation on the phone, medium, close up, medium close up and long shots to show different emotions at different points of the conversation (whether they were excited, stern or upset.)
