Filming
Yesterday night, I started filmed my project. There aren't a lot of shots I need that I couldn't just set up the camera on a surface and press record, thus it was easy. Other shots such as close-ups on the setting were a little trickier as I had to keep my hand steady. Though I knew I should film everything in one sitting as to be completely sure of my shots, I had my storyboard with me in order to make sure I recorded all the shots I needed.
During the filming process, I made sure the setting looked the way it needed to. I cleaned my room and the main area I would be filming, which is my PC setup. I then placed some video game plushies and figures in noticeable areas to get close-ups of them. I, then focused on my angles starting with an establishing shot and some close-ups. The trickiest shot was the blackout scene as I had to get out of my chair to turn off the lights and then get back in my chair whilst making it look like it wasn't me turning everything off. To beat this challenge I set my camera down and press record, I sat at my desk for a minute then got up and turned everything off, as there was no lighting it was easy to cut the clip into three parts and delete the section where I'm turning everything off. This way it looks like I never got up from my chair at all.
