Filming session

29th April

We completed our final shots for our final piece. What we filmed were new shots for our opening - putting more focus on the antagonist, which was suggested to us by our feedback from our teacher. We decided to focus on the title of our thriller, Reflections, by adding a shot of Jonny looking into the mirror, with an image of Abbie lying against the mirror.

Other shots:

- Low angle of Jonny walking down the stairs
- Jonny walking into the kitchen and panning as he goes to the fridge
- The camera inside the fridge, giving a close up as Jonny looks for something

We chose these shots because they add normality, and juxtapose the narrative and the character himself. He has murdered someone, but is acting as if nothing has happened, which allows the audience to connect with the character and evoke an emotional response.

We worked and communicated well with the filming and we each agree that our new shots are very effective for our opening.
