Filming - doctor's office

For the doctor's office scene, we struggled to find a location to film in, and ended up booking a small edit room on the univeristy's campus:

Jacob has asked me to give him credit for this photo.

I was able to borrow posters and a stethoscope from the hospital my dad works at, which helped to decorate what's obviously an edit booth to look more like a doctor's office.

Unfortunately, although we had found an actor to play the role of the doctor, he became unavailable on the day we filmed, so Poppy stood in instead.

The size of the room was less than helpful, but above all else, lighting proved to be a problem. The overhead lights in the room couldn't be turned off, meaning lighting effects had to be reconsidered - I had suggested lowering ambient lighting for one shot to give a spotlight/'deer-in-the-headlights' look, which wasn't possible due to the lighting restriction.

Instead, we shone a pair of Dedo lamps on Poppy's face during a sequence in which Gary's paranoia takes hold of him. Each lamp shone on one side of her face, and we used different coloured gels and different intensities to give an unnatural, exaggerated look of menace to the doctor.
