Day 2 - Filming The Library Scene

In Dan's lesson we began filming our first scene in the library. In this part we used the dictionary as our props, it was used in when Susan took from the shelf and read the term 'possession' through her finger. We took numerous of shots under the library's rules of keeping quiet. Even though it was more difficult to communicate, it was more of a challenge. We took long shots, close ups and a particular over the shoulder shot where Susan was reaching out for the book. This was very important as we used a technique in notifying the label of the shelf stating 'Mental Processes' to help the understanding of our narrative. Also to consider, is the low angle shot with the plant representing the mise en scene, help create Susan's character as abnormal as she sits on the floor instead of normally sitting and reading on a chair.
