Start of filming

Luckily we found some time before breaking up to film the start of our title sequence in our lesson. We only took one shot as the preparation for the setting took time to look good. We went to a teacher's conference room as it supplied most of the props which we needed for that specific shot. We decided to take shots in there for the Doctor's study, and we will need to go back there when we return to school after half term.

 
 
We then continued filming the following week and I feel like we got a lot done in 2 days, we got 114 clips altogether and I feel like most of them were successful.
 
Day 1: On our first day we went to Megan's house to film, at Megan's we filmed all the indoor shots that we needed for our title sequence. This day, we recorded Maria's pan shots and the diary and both of the characters getting ready to leave the house.
 
Day 2: On the second day we went to my house to film the remaining indoor shots and the outside shots, we decided to go to my house to film outdoors as there is a quiet close near my house with barely any passing traffic. This day we finished recording Maria's getting ready to go out shots and the tracking and point of view shots of the Doctor following Maria when she leaves.
 
Luckily the day after filming on the first day, the weather was not rainy or windy so the shots are bright and clear which our group was happy about, we needed these shots to be dark but we learned that shooting in the light and editing it to a darker time of the day would be a more effective way of taking the shots for the title sequences.
