McCheese and Callaghan progress 4.

On the third day of filming, we had decided to film everything inside, and change the storyboard so that the whole scene was set inside of a warehouse in Belgium, rather than outside, or outside going inside.
We did this because we decided it would have been easier, and more efficient, with less disturbances because there were quiet places to film that werent a hassle to adjust continuity too. At the start this time, McCheese and Callaghan are stood behind a door, peering through the two windows, shown as a mid-shot, and burst through the door and McCheese throws a shoe at the "Housley". This is another change that took place in our storyboard. We then walk over the Housley as planned, and is still shown as a mid-shot, and we discuss the same as previously planned, about wives and kids, but this time it is filmed in a hall way, and is more of a long shot. We then follow the same idea as we previously tried, by walking up the stairs, and the Housley runs at us, but this time we push the doors open and walk through, talking about our job, but this time McCheese pushes the "Housley" over, rather than hitting him. We believed this ran smoother, and looked much better than a cheesy fake punch that makes the film look shabby. And after that, the same as previously filmed happened, McCheese and Callaghan talking, and Elizabeth running in asking for our help. These new set of shots were a big improvement on the others. Although we still had to reshoot the second half of them. Mainly due to a door closing and wrecking the sound, you could not hear Nathan and me speak. Also we had discovered that the footage from the newer camera is alot sharper and doesn't have the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen, which ruins the continuity. So we have decided to do a voice over, over the original. This will make the sound sharper, and make the contuinity of the film better, making the quality equal, rather than one better, and one worse. And we are refilming the parts with better quality, and without a black bar, with another camera, one with less quality to follow the continuity of the whole thing, making it all flow again, and making the quality, and resolution equal.
This will be happening on tuesday, and further information will be uploaded soon after we have filmed and uploaded the new footage.
