On Saturday our test shoot went really well. We all turned up on time, and Francis and Nico arrived later to help us and stand in as actors. We ended up playing a small part each because we wanted a range of people to try and best represent what the real footage would look like. Raef brought some of his lights and we experimented with filters to give the room a sci-fi style blue tint, which I think really made the mise-en-scene more interesting and more filmic.
We each managed to shoot a fairly equal amount of shots and I took on an organisational role and kept track of what shots we had done.
The set design went really well. We heavily dressed the desk area and covered the wall with posters which made the set look completely different. I think that the wires we used to decorate with completed the set as they fit in so well with the theme. We ended up covering Jeng's bedroom window with bin bags to block out more light, which made the lighting we had really look impressive, and we'll probably do this again for our actual shoot.
