Lights, Camera, Action

We have finished our first full shoot and we now have the footage we need, what follows from now on will predominantly be editing and the production of the opening credits.

In terms of how the shoot went we did have a large degree of success but that in turn was not without a fair amount of error.

On multiple occasions the key issue was with the dialogue, certain lines kept getting confused, most notably was that of the line "One of the things you learn from this job is the wonders of perception." to which I confused with the line "Well, Perception is a Wonderment" or something along those lines"

On a couple of Occasions we were also plagued by how much we could move around the scene, yet we solved this problem by moving furniture before filming, keeping in mind the continuity.
 
In terms of props we managed to successfully make the most of what we got and I am fairly pleased with the results. I will post a video explaining what we did for the scene later after it has been processed on Vimeo.com and is ready to be embedded.

The Shots that we took for the timelapse are in my opinion rather interesting, to better illustrate this I placed a couple of candles in the room, As time goes on in the lapse, some of the candles go out, we have also removed items from each one to emphasise the investigation

Amy has also taken a couple of crime scene photos to use in the credits. I will be taking some additional ones to lengthen the credits if need be.

Overall I think that the shoot was something of a success and we have plenty of footage to work with.
