Filming

We filmed in The dark room, The college toilets and LGM04.
For filming we used a camera and a tripod to balance the camera on in order to create good, stable scenes.

In the dark room, we filmed the pictures being developed. We learnt that the camera light couldn't be on due to the picture becoming black and foggy if we did this, so we put the light on after it went into the 'wash' and out of the developnent area.

In LGMO4, we filmed the interview scenes. We filmed it in this room as it had the necessary apparatus that we needed. It had a table, chair and also had a white background to make it look like a plain interview room.

In the College toilets, we filmed Sineads legs and put blood marks on the floor (ketchup). This was ideal as we had to use a floor that we could clean up after we had used it although we had to put binbags on the floor so it wouldn't mess the tiles up in the bathroom (as it was all newly refurbished and we wouldn't want to get in trouble either) . We couldn't do this anywhere else in the college as the rest of the rooms had carpet in.

Overall, filming taught me a lot of things and helped me in knowing how it works as before, I did not know anything about it. It is not as easy as it seems as it is very important putting the camera in the right place as different angles are portrayed in different ways.
