Shooting Day 1

I just got back from Evan's house where we met as a group for the first time to shoot some scenes. Surprisingly, we actually got a lot done - about half of our entire mini-mini-Film Noir, as I like to refer to it. We all met at Evan's at about 3:00. Well, Kyle unfortunately couldn't make it today since he couldn't get out of work, and Conrad had to come a little late since he had to pick up his brother from college and bring him back home. Nonetheless, we got a lot done, and it went quite smoothly as well.

I'd have to say that the hardest part about shooting today was working out the lighting. We didn't check out a light, so we used a flood light instead. It ended up providing nice shadowing, but it took a little bit of finessing to find the proper placement so there would not be an overwhelming bright spot from the source of the light. I helped to figure that out. I also did some camera work, some sound work, a voice over, and continuously paid attention to any continuity issues that may arise, and fixed any I saw before they became full fledged issues.
