Having realised that further changes needed to be made to our Trailer further filming days were necessary in order to bring our Trailer up to its full potential.

The first half that we needed to film would allow for a wider range of angles that could be included (including an over the shoulder shot), although we did incur a slight complication in trying to capture a shot that required the camera to focus on the computer screen itself so as to show just how many files there are. It was interesting filming at this point because, whereas before we didn't want to film any moments that were too long because we were conscious of the fact that a trailer would have shorter shots, this time we had to make sure that the shots we took were long enough so that there would be sufficient material to play with in the editing stages.

As part of the second scene that we tried to film we wanted to include a shot that looked like it was being recorded by a CCTV camera. In order to achieve this effect we needed the camera to be filming in black and white. Because, in the editing stage the idea was that the scene would roughly transition from the colour to the CCTV, we were conscious of the fact that we needed to reenact the same sequence twice so that said transition could be relatively seamless.
