Day one of filming

Today I began filming my teaser trailer. I had filmed some of the scenes that take place in the night schedule of the shooting order. I found it quite fun experimenting with the different shots and angles I could use to better accentuate the pacing of the scenes. I had used members of my family as actors in my scenes and had used my house as the location for the scenes, I had done this because I wanted to set my teaser in an everyday suburban house and thought my house was the right representation for this, using a suburban house allows me to make a link with my audience because they can relate with the lifestyles of my characters,
Due to the low ambient lighting in my house I had to compromise and use a combination of LED lights and mobile phone torch lights to lit the setting.


unfortunately whilst I was evaluating the clips that I shot I had discovered that the footage came out quite grainy/noisy whilst being quite dark, meaning that the lighting I had used was still inadequate, to combat this I would heavily edit the image on after effects and premiere pro to increase the brightness and decrease the noisiness of the clips. 
Altogether this was a great learning experience as I know what the problems I need to consider before I begin filming again.
