Problems I encountered

One problem I faced was getting the lighting correct as we wanted it to be low key to create an enigma code but I also wanted the audience to see the mise en scene which was pictures of the couple, love letters and red hearts.
I overcame this problem by instead of having the camera still, I asked Tanzy to do a tracking shot and ensure that the mise en scene could be seen. as for the lighting we used a spot light which was dimmed by putting black sheet over it.

Another problem was whilst editing Conor and I found that the opening sequence did not make sense and was confusing. So I quickly came up with the idea that we should include a diary which says on what date the girl is doing. For example at the end it just reads 'kill' in capitals and then the next shot is of the guy being tied up.

One other problem I encountered was slacking of some members of the group. I overcame this by either carrying on with the shooting or editing or by trying to motivate the member to be involved and help, sometimes this worked but other times it didn't, hopefully our end product will not show this.
