DAY 3 OF FILMING

The scene we filmed on day 3 was our main scene - the party scene. We need a lot of people in this scene as we had to show a house party, so we arranged a night at our location with a bunch of people. The scene began with a group of rowdy people entering through the front door and not taking any recognition of Amy, this shows that they are here for the house party, not her. This is the scene I filmed as my friend's were in the this scene as we didn't have enough people at the party due to some of our friends not being available. As the party moves on, Amy is approached by a popular student in her year Sadie, I chose to film this scene as a medium long shot at a 45 degree angle in a corridor so the scene became more intimate and the audience weren't distracted by the party. The scene consisted with Amy and Sadie talking, and then Amy leaving the shot and Sadie entering. During this scene, Amy is asked to come somewhere, so in this same shot, without moving I filmed her entering the bathroom, then did a shot behind her closing to the door to make it link. 

We then moved on to Amy looking down and a point of view extreme close up on Sadie asking her to try the drugs. We originally shot a scene of Amy taking the drugs, but we thought implying it would be a lot more sophisticated and let the audience think for themselves. 

I also filmed a scene which happens later that evening after Amy has taken the drugs, I filmed her coming down the stairs at a low angle to show her staggering and her loss of control from the drugs. We then have a shot where we see someone approach her which is a close up, which then moves into a point of view shot looking at this person, which then cuts back to Amy at a medium shot telling her to leave her alone. We thought that if we were showing a point of view shot, with our editing skills we could make her vision blurred and make it slow motion, we did this with the next shot of the person shaking the camera.
