We finally started filming our project, and filmed the bedroom scenes. Overall, it went pretty well, however, we had some challenges filming certain parts.
To begin, we had the shot of the alarm clock, and Parker, my partner, had the idea of cutting from the alarm clock to the bully's eye, who I am playing, to create a smooth cut. We found out that moving the camera closer to the subject creates a higher quality shot then simply zooming in. After these, we sat down and decided how to create the bruises on my arm. We could've had real bruises, but that would've hurt! We decided to take a painless approach and use my moms makeup, who she put on my arm. Thanks mom!

This is how they turned out.
After this, we hit our next roadblock. The mirror shots. We struggled with not having Parker in the shot, holding the camera. We eventually figured out an angle that had him not visible, and allowed him to get the full shot.
Overall, we had a pretty successful day filming, and we will film soon to film the shots for when the bully arrives home.
