DAY 13

The first day of FILMING!

It was fun, i've to admit. Although we faced some problems at the start, with the tape not being able to be played back, we solved it with the help of Whidah and the loan shop uncle. Thanks people!
We started filming on a used tape. It worked well and yeah, below is what we have done today.
- the shots of staircase, school and classroom for the animated figures
- brief reference shot for the introduction to guide us tml

So yeah, we did two parts today. Pretty good, thumbs up.
We had a few NGS for the classroom shot because we were observing the angles and the composition to make this sc more interesting. We tried a few variations of camera angle and shot size and finally finalized after 4 NGS. Perfection is important, ok!

Then, since we had some time, we decided to work on a brief reference shot for our introduction which we will be filming tml. As the group all agreed that timing was the most crucial for the introduction to turn out well, we all thought that it would be good to do a first trial where we jot down the various exact timing for different things happening along the way when jasmine enters into design school. The reference filming for today worked out pretty well, we got the timing for all the different parts and the first trial was smooth. Hope tmls' will be a success.

Keep going people, and it's just like around 30 more days left! ((:
