Filming - Early Scenes

At 1:30pm the two actresses (who are playing the main two roles) got their outfits and make up sorted, before we headed to the scene location to film the early scenes. This location was too far away from our college, where we were using the small park and the roadside pavements surrounding it. There was a little bit improvisation from me for the first planned shot, where I decided that it would look great, if we were to produce a panning shot, firstly starting from the sunshine that happened to be in the sky that day, sliding towards the roadside pavement, where the main character (Actress Ayesha) was to be walking. I felt this would help enhance the idea of bright lighting to create the contrasting effects from the Ayesha's dark clothing Afterwards, we went onto record, this scene, and the whole sequence of this scene, through several different angles and distances, to create opportunities to capture the moment in different ways Subsequently, we undertook the opportunity to film the dream-like scene inside the park, where actress Jahannara (who is playing the ghostly figure) entered the frame. We felt she portrayed the character brilliantly - she didn't need to do much, but perfectly suited our vision of the character. We tried to creatively use the space we had in the location, and attained various footage, to allow us te opportunity to arrange a monatage together.
