The Time Of Day We Chose To Film And Why
For our OTS we filmed during the afternoon from the approximate hours of 12:45 to 2:30. However due to the time of year being winter, we were lucky enough to have the effect of frost and fog. This gave a good lighting making the clips appear to be filmed around the evening time which produced an effective zombie style scene without the use of editing.
