College Scene - Meg and Laura

When we filmed the college scene for the first time, we filmed in the common room in a place that we thought looked good. Although we had some good shots in this sequence, the background noise was really prominent and distracted too much from the scene overall. In some shots you can barely hear the dialogue between the characters, which is obviously the main focus in the scene as they are having a discussion in which we first see Sam's friends talking about the bruise.  The second time we filmed the college scene, we filmed it in the common room again at a different, quieter time. We also moved to the corner of the room, because we thought the background noise may reflect as much, therefore not be as apparent. However, we found when it came to editing that the diegetic background noise made the diegetic dialogue inaudible. There were some shots that we liked, for example the close up of Sam where his friend Ryan is in the side of the frame. We hoped to emulate some of these shots in the final college scene, however when we looked for a new location we could not find one where they could sit down, meaning they had to stand further apart. 
With the final college scene we had some problems when looking for a location. Overall we tried and set up in three locations, but there were some issues with the lighting and noise still, as we have talked about in our vlog.
