Today we had to change our filming plan, because my house is currently off limits, due to the fact that my dad just got out of hospital, now we plan to film at Michael's house instead. later in the day we hit a large issue when we got to Michael's home, there was no key, we had to go around the neighborhood looking for a key, at his relatives home's, we later got a key and went inside, to film e a scene of a door slamming, looking back at that footage we noticed a painting on the wall almost fall out of the frame. after 4 takes from different angles we finally got a good shot, that showed you what was going on clearly, with the flying painting included, i was acting through the whole film, and was the only person in shot for 90% of it. we then went across cambridge to go under a bridge to film a scene that shows me (the main character) as being alone, vulnerable, lonely. we had a handheld shot of the camera panning around, but we ended up almost scrapping that shot, then i had the idea to speed it up and reposition the soundtrack (Thankyou BlackMesaSource team for the music), but sadly the song wasn't long enough to fit the whole video, so after a little bit of editing we managed to loop the track smoothly, we edited the original shot of the locker saying "emo" "fag" etc, to hold each shot for a second or two, with different angles to emphasize the shots, when i tore down the paper, I let the door slowly shut instead of opening it, slowly as the screen faded hinted towards the fact that what was going on was sad, depressing. during the ending scene with the door knocking scene, i noticed that when i was knocking on the door it looked more like i was rocking back and forth.

Here are some photographs...
