Production Diary: Reshooting and alterations

On October 2nd, I decided to reshoot and alter some scenes of my film in order to alleviate a few issues, namely: some grainy footage, resolve some continuity errors, and to change the ending of the film entirely. This proved to be very successful, with each issue successfully being resolved.

Firstly, I decided to refilm the originally grainy shot from a slightly different angle and using a different lens, ultimately resulting in better quality footage.

Some lines and plot details were also slightly altered, such as the cafe dialogue, alongside the Hooded Figure instead donning an iconographic werewolf mask as suggested and donated by Harry Batkin.

I also decided to reimagine the ending of my film, deciding to attempt a more creative and engaging sequence involving pulling the camera back to reveal a seemingly endless pattern of The Student watching himself watch himself watch his film.
