Today we were planning to film in Starbucks, however, it was too busy so we decided to finish filming in the darkroom. After developing our film yesterday, we needed to develop individual photographs, in total we have four - three scenic shots taken at Forty Hall and one of the murder victim. We wanted the Forty Hall pictures to look very peaceful and natural to juxtapose the brutality of the crime committed by our main character. We put a lot of thought into the images that we wanted as we needed the props to look authentic so as to not distract the audience and take them out of the moment. Below, on the left shows the enlarging process, on the right is the final photograph.

We also had to film me developing some of the photographs as well as film a few shots around the darkroom to create a mysterious atmosphere, to introduce the audience to the location. Our two minute opening is split into three distinct sections, the first is the title sequence which takes place in the darkroom, the second is in Starbucks and the third is in the darkroom again, developing photographs. It proved to be quite difficult whilst we were editing to make the transition between each location seamless, to make the opening flow better. We needed to make the transition between Starbucks and the darkroom less jarring. We decided to make the final shot in Starbucks nearly identical to the first shot in the darkroom. Below is the shot in Starbucks:
We had to re-film this shot in the darkroom various times as we wanted the angle of the camera to match perfectly.
