Reflections 5
Rasheda Murder Scene
Since our last reflection we have filmed the scene where Rasheda gets murdered by Roman.
As a group we spoke about us making it look like a flashback so we have decided that when we start to edit it properly we want the scene to be black and white.
While filming we had a lot of problems for instance, because we were in a public environment people kept walking by and disturbing our filming and we had to be careful because Diego was holing a knife so we had to do that scene quickly because if anyone had seen that scene they could have called the police because they could have thought it was real especially when Ralia screams because I had her scream multiple times.
Another complication we had was when i was filming. Because I filmed the whole scene I came up with the idea that i wanted a P.O.V shot for Roman and that involved we running and chasing after Ralia with the camera, at first when i did it it was looking blurry and it just ended up looking messy so i put it on the tripod and mad it as small as possible and surprisingly it working and it ended up looking quite nice.
Another hard bit to film was when Roman was raising his hand to kill Rasheda because Diego's arm kept getting in the way of the camera so we had to keep re-taking that scene. We also had to keep re-taking the scene where Rasheda screams because before we came up with the idea of having a voice over we thought about having Rasheda actually screaming in the scene, but it either sounded o fake or she would laugh or her throat started to hurt- because i made her scream a lot or Diego's hand would get in the way because i tried to make it one continuous shot from when he raises his hands to kill her to where she screams.

But overall the most annoying bit to shoot was when Rasheda screams and birds fly away. Ralia came up with the idea and seeing that we were in a park and birds where there it was fitting, but actually getting it on camera was hard. i had to keep running after the birds and every time I would get close they would fly away, so i ended up having to throw a stick from a distance and quickly get it on film, after 17 takes i finally got it.
I can't wait till we start to edit the film properly so we can put it all together because so far it is looking so good.
As a group I think we are doing well and we are getting on with it and even when we are filing it doesn't feel that long, until we look at the clock and realise that we have been i the park for 4 hours but apart from that it's all good.
