Filming Day 1

Today we filmed Chloe walking into college from getting off the bus, and then Chloe when she is left alone at the table when her friends ignore her and then leave the table they are sat at.

Filming Day 2

Today we filmed a couple of scenes at Leah's house. These scenes were the scene when Chloe wakes up and sees Amy in her bedroom, and when Chloe has a flashback of her getting stabbed by a burglar, which Amy witnesses.

Filming Day 3

Today, we decided to reshoot the burglar scene, as we were not happy with the length and quality of the footage, and we also filmed some of the flashbacks that Chloe experiences, including when Chloe believes Amy died in an attack, and the scene in which Chloe is actually stabbed.

Here is the scene where Chloe is murdered by the burglar, who panics when Chloe finds him going through draws in the kitchen, in which he panics and stabs her, before escaping.

Filming Day 4

Today, we filmed the scene where Chloe goes to the graveyard to see Amy, after a weird day at college and finds that she is the one who died. We filmed Chloe walking to the gravestone, where she has a flashback of what really happened, and the twist is revealed.

Filming Day 5

We filmed the classroom scene and the bathroom scene. This is where Chloe goes into class only to be ignored by her fellow classmates and so leaves the room. We then filmed her in the bathroom, getting really panicked and confused before having a flashback.

Filming Day 6

We filmed Chloe writing in her diary and filmed other shots of the diary which are potential title sequence shots.

Filming Day 7

After our audience feedback, we found that we needed to add more shots of Amy in the graveyard scene and so we filmed her walking through the graveyard towards Chloe's gravestone. We also re-filmed the POV shot of Chloe walking under the arc as the previous one was too quick. We did this shot multiple times, trying to do it slowly and get it right.

Filming Day 8

We re-filmed Chloe writing in the diary as the first one lasted too long. We also re-shot the shot of Chloe in the classroom where her hair is up (as it is down in the next shot and breaks continuity).

Filming Day 9

We re-filmed a small shot where Chloe is looking at her work on the computer, as there was a continuity issue and then we also re-filmed a small shot in the canteen scene, where there was an awkward fourth wall.
