The second day of filming took place in Streatham in front and behind an abandoned Church which we had suggested earlier. The first shots that were filmed were the pan of the front of the Church from a low angle and as the Church was so large, in order to capture it all in the camera frame, we had to shoot very near to the road. In doing so, members of the public did not consider what we were doing and walked past disrupting the shots, causing us to start again delaying time.
The next section was us walking to the back of the Church, again the group wanted to experiment with camera angles yet capture as interesting shots as we could. This time we chose to balance the camera in a group members shoe, so that it was as near to the ground as possible yet not affected by the snow which could be damaging. It turned out to be one of the most successful shots that we filmed.
Finally we shot at the back of the church and due to positioning of the camera, and becoming familiar to the location, we changed it last minute from Lisa looking directly into the camera, to her walking away from the camera and standing still. This was to allow the audience to ponder on why she stopped (as well as being the only character left in the frame) and also to prevent discomfort for the character and the audience- having someone stare directly at them.
