During this day i focused on getting my rough cut finished. There were some shots that i was unable to film such as the bar shots, however i was able to film the shooting scene. I think this went well as i have never had to shoot a scene where there is a sudden change to the character. I had to add blood to the victim after he had been shot but make it look real. I did this by filming the gun shot and then stopping the filming but getting the actors to stay where they were. I then applied the blood and carreid on filming. Whilst this looked good at the time i realised that the shooters arm moved and it was obvious when the two shots were put together. This i will have to refilm, but other than that it didn't look too bad. With the other shooting shots, i need to remember that what i need to do is priority, as the weather conditions weren't desirable i rushed the filming and realised i should have filmed certain things better when i got back to post production.
Post production of things i had previously filmed and put into Premier Pro went well. Using my storyboard i was easily able to slot the shots in which further allowed me to develop my rough cut. The shots which i hadn't yet filmed i kept my animatic shots in place. I also designed the titles, but after looking back at my previous research i think it would be better to have the titles on top of the moving images along with the voiceover, thus fitting in with the codes and conventions of the film noir genre.
I also re filmed the kissing scene, which went better than the previous time, however the battery in the camera was low and the actors and me were under pressure to get it filmed before the camera went dead. I have realised that sometimes working under pressure can produce the best work, and i am pleased with the out come of this film shoot. To further keep with the codes and conventions of the film noir genre i changed the shots to black and white.
