2. Reshoot of the rejection scene
In this week we did a reshoot of the rejection scene because we felt that some of
the shots we filmed could have been done differently for the scene to look better.
As the director, working with the camera person we had to redirect the shoot.
Problems?
In this reshoot we never had any problems, the main problems that we had doing
the first scene were overcome. The initial problem of the spacing in the corridor
wasn’t a issue this time because we decided to change particular angles to suit
our location. For example originally we had the shot where Hermione says no and
walks away in a mid shot, but we changed it to an over the shoulder view shot.
In addition to the reshoot of the
rejection scene ,we also decided
that we would shoot a newly
crafted scene with Hermione sitting
on the stairs planning her revenge
for Harry spreading the rumors,
which would allow the audience to
link the events which would
happen later to Hermione's words.

3. First week of editing/Using Final Cut pro
Now we had finished shooting it was time to upload what we had filmed onto
Mac
Final Cut Pro, where we would edit the shots recorded to produce our short film.
At this stage, the editor would be the main person in putting the film together
through editing the shots filmed, whilst the rest of the crew would help to make
sure the correct shots, transitions and sounds are used.

Pro
After importing everything off the camera onto the software, it
showed up in this format which allows us to see:
