Well, on friday evening the group came to my house along with our actors Louis, Bunyamin and Catherine.
We pretty much kicked it straight into action, starting with Chelsea doing a few takes of Louis entering the house and looking up the stairs from different angles. We then did about three different angles of Cat and Ben running up the stairs with wine. I could tell Ben would blatantly spill red wine all over the floor if his cup was too full so I didn't put much in and thankfully he didn't spill any this time.
We were able to run through the process quite smoothly as we knew what we were doing this time, and when filming the part in which Louis is drinking in front of the mirror, we achieved the lighting of the room to make Louis as a figure all in black which looked quite good.
I was pleased with how the filming of the stabbing went. Firstly, we were relieved that we could actually see through the camera outside as we feared it would be too dark and that we'd need to shine a torch. We have two different angles of the stabbing, as well as a high-angle shot of Louis stood over the dying/dead Ben, which looked quite good. One problem was ensuring that Ben stayed in the same dead position, I'm not sure its entirely 100% accurate throughout. Also there were a lot of cars passing which meant we couldn't film (the noise ruined the scene, and also the character wouldn't murder someone whilst being seen)
All in all, I think the whole group was happy with how it went. Also, I have been impressed with Louis' performance. Now lets do some editing baby!
