Since we only used one day to film it took us about 4 straight hours, so we all met up at the at the main location which was Olivia Rigg's house and we got to work. We started off by organizing the artificial light which Gabi handled and we did this by using lamps and iphone flashlights. After that had been organised we started filming but we didn't follow the storyboard because it was easier to start with some of the later scenes and the cellar wasn't ready to be filmed yet.
Halimat and Gabi had a camera each which meant we could film each scene from two different angles which helped our filming easier and quicker. The only problem we had was the fact that it was getting dark but we solved that by closing all curtains so that we wouldn't have a continuity issue.
After filming all the upstairs scenes we went down to the cellar to take the most important scenes which was the centre of the opening. The cellar scenes were fairly easy because all though the lighting was very good, the extra low key lighting was very useful because for thriller and suspense movies it was a typical convention which we used to our complete advantage.
We also took some still shots using Sekemi's camera as evidence for our scenery and make-up used and we knew they would come in handy eventually.
