The first filming we had partaken in was the interview scene with all the characters sitting at a table, being questioned. This was originally going to be the basis of the film opening, however, since then we have changed the film, making this filming session useless. However, we took many learning points away from the filming. For example, we learnt we need to be more time conservative as we were close to running out of time when filming. Additionally, we learnt that we needed to think about what we do before we start filming, so we don't waste time filming scenes that we ultimately will not use.
On the contrary, we could have made this filming usable by using two cameras. This would allow the viewer to get a wider view of the whole scene, as only using one camera means that the viewer can only see one perspective at a time when filming a scene. This limited how effective the filming was, and is possibly a reason why we didn't use the footage we filmed on that day.
Reflections on both the shooting of the interview scene and the content. The set is rather without character, which is another aspect that you may have realised was unsatisfactory.
