Our group met up quite a lot to discuss plot and managed to narrow it down to one idea to present to anne and rosie. The presentation was helpful, and we got good feedback which encouraged us to re-evaluate the plot and make it more concise, fixing the overly complex plot and themes that would have been difficult to all fit into the film articulately. I worked with the script team and we met in the canteen. I feel like we would all agree there were too many people working on the script and the meeting was a bit tense. I think a lot of the group were stressed about getting everything done in time for the shoot. I mentioned that I thought the plot needed to more directly reference that it was a flashback rather than her just appearing which made her seem as if a ghost. I feel people took that as criticism, but I was just trying to point it out and ask how that was going to be shown. The studio shoot gave a good insight to what it is like to work as a team in studio roles. During so...

D.O.P (director of photography) The DOP selects lenses, filters, lighting, etc I began to do research on lighting and colours to help me visualise how to light the scene and what would be most effective. I mainly watched videos as they were the most helpful. This was a really cool and useful video to introduce me into more cinematic lighting to get a more dimensional look on the scene to not make things look flat and dull. To the left are the notes I made while watching it. The different types of lighting really helped me when thinking of the positioning of lighting and how it would shine and affect the characters to connote certain atmospheres/mood changes. It didnt mention a lot about colour and said i had to join his website or something so i searched colour lighting on youtube and found these videos:  In this video, he mentions Goethe somebody and then i was like... wait?? is that the Faust Guy(Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)?? and guess what??.. yes it is the faust...
