During the editing process, I realized that my film had gone well over the time limit provided by Cambridge. In order to remedy this, we set out to fix the time issues through reshoots. One scene in particular needed to be reshot: the car scene. Originally the scene features Agi rambling while Cassie starts the car, but the film ended up being too long with it added.
To replace the scene, we filmed a scene of Cassie alone getting into her car and driving off. This took off about ten seconds as it was significantly shorter than the other scene. It also allowed for some variety in shot types, as previously the film used medium and two shots almost exclusively. The scene also allowed for better continuity, as the transition in location made more sense this way.
Once reshoots were done, we went back into editing. A lot of the piece ended up being too long, and a lot ended up being cut. Instead of having Cara leave before the outburst, the new script had Cara there for the outburst, giving it more weight. This hopefully increases the tension of the scene and adds another layer to the story.
