As we finished up filming, we ran into a few problems from lighting to communication problems. Our biggest problem being the communication with each other. As we can’t meet face-to-face with each other and don’t see each other daily, communicating was hard. Even through we all have phones and their contact information, it was hard as they wouldn’t answer their phones for hours at a time. This was harder to ‘fix’ because there wasn’t anything we do other than talk to them and explain to them why they needed to have their phones on them, but this did not work. In the end, we did finish the project on time.
Another easier problem that I encountered was the lighting in my room. The first scene we recorded was the Zoom call, where I had to have gloomy, dark lighting. My light was close to my face and very bright on camera, to fix this, I got a black piece of clothing and put it on top of my lamp. Doing this gave me the lighting I needed for the scene. The second scene I filmed I did the same thing but this time let some light shine through. This light on me looked reddish and could be used to signify danger.
