Once we were able to secure a room to shoot the bedroom scenes we concentrated on refurbishing the room with 'geeky' mise-on-scene.

At times the bedroom became very enclosed and claustrophobic due to the amount of equipment and crew members. To get resolve this we moved various items of furniture, our closed in camera angles allowed us to disguise this. 

To defuse the harsh lighting of the dedo we used grease proof paper.

Recently we managed to obtain a Glidecam HD 1000, this will allow a much more varied range in the shots, a slow backward track was a shot I had always wanted to explore in our film I now have the confidence that this will be possible.  

This scene implements an editing style similar to what we intend to use in our short film in the dating video scene. We plan to cut from the webcam footage to static shots of our protagonist in various activities in which he mentions in the webcam video i.e gaming, painting, watching a film, through this there will be continuous V.O however in some cases we feel it will be necessary to fade the V.O and add diegetic sound from that particular scenario. The character that Steve Carell plays in 'The 40 Year Old Virgin' has the attributes that we feel our character can relate to, he lives alone in house surrounded by geeky novelties and collectables regularly indulging in activities that steer clear of female contact, though his general attitude seems to be in high spirit we can't help but feel empathy.
