on the final day of filming we repeated mic’ing up the actors, this time finding a combo of tapes and techniques that worked the best for us after looking through online forums for some better answers. we noticed that the quality of recordings improved greatly. we then set up recording equipment, tested everything, and were ready.
we followed the routine filming the last little bits, before the car scene at the end of the day, for this I crouched down in the back of the car with a zoom to get the soundscape of inside a moving car, then, while the film crew moved on to film some scenes with no sound, Callum drove the car around the same circuit a few times so we could get a good quality sound of the car engine approaching, again in the unique space, as well as getting some more foley recordings of the big main door and the car doors.
we also went back and refilmed some of the other scenes because the director wasn’t happy with the visuals of the recordings that they had, we realised at this point that the performance of some of the lines had changed, this was because the actors were still learning their lines over the weekend, meaning that the performance was quite different each time. this could work out to be a problem for us when it comes to editing together the best takes.
