As I wasn't at the shoot that day, this is a summary of how Diana said the day went and my view on the footage that was taken.
From what Diana has said it sounds like the filming went extremely well, as it was only with the one actress and Diana meaning very little organisation was needed. They filmed including breaks from 12pm to 5.30pm.
From the footage you can clearly see that lighting is an issue, this was because as expected one of the lights died out fairly quickly meaning that several of the shots had different light. However our original plan was to play around with the colour in editing so this can all be fixed later. During our last media lesson, I researched how to play around with colour in Final Cut Pro and it seems do-able, with several different features that you can use to adjust the colour. So I certainly don't think it will be a problem. Below you can see the difference in the shots.
There is also a couple of shots that Diana either needs to reshoot or shoot. This can be easily done however as again Diana lives really near to the actress' house meaning that she can go over any time and film. The part she needs to reshoot there is a shot of the box with a lock on it in one a shot and then no lock in the next and then she forgot to take an extreme close up shot of the necklace, which is a fairly important shot so needs to be done.
The sound faced no challenges for Diana and sounds perfect on the computer, this is because there was only one line of dialogue and it was inside, so there was very little ambient sound to interfere with the dialogue. Next week sound will become more of an issue when we are outside and on the street where there is a lot of ambient sound.
Diana also took extra shots which were weren't on the storyboard, this in my opinion is exactly what we need to do as it is far better to have more shots than we need than not have enough. We need to have as many different shots as possible to keep it interesting and show our ability to use a range of different shots.
