On the day of the preliminary task we found two students who were willing to be filmed, we gave them the script to learn as we were setting up the camera and deciding what shorts we wanted to do. We put them in order of what worked most efficiently we started with the wide shots of someone entering the room and then worked to close up shots of both characters. We set up the first wide shot, we put two tables together making sure they were steady and then put the camera on top to get a wide shot of the whole room, this worked well as we got a sense of how big the room actually was and it gave us a starting point to the rest of our preliminary task. We then changed the angle of the camera to get our close up shots and other shots that we felt fit with the script. We used lights to create a shadowing effect and to light up the side of each characters face.
Before each shot we had to remember to check that the white balance, focus, lighting and bubbling on the stand so that our shots were perfectly framed. After all the shots we pack away and took our shots to the editing room
