Why is a filming schedule important to have?

It is important to have a film schedule as it plans out methodically how we will go about making the film and the roles that each of us will playing in creating the film. Sticking as closely as possible to this schedule means that we will be on track for the end result which we are aiming for and everyone is aware of what one another is supposed to be doing. Also it means that if changes need to be made it will be easy for us to make these and show this on the schedule. This will improve our film as we can spend more time on editing as it wont take long if we know exactly what we're doing and don't have to change too much. Also the main factor to making our film a success is the editing as the music and shot techniques will create the most tension and surprise. 

Did you follow the schedule while, or did you make any changes

We followed our schedule throughout the process and finished the filming quickly and professionally. The only changes we had to make were to the date the camera angles as the room didn't provide us with the appropriate space necessary. This is because we didn't know exactly how the bedroom would look so we had to adapt once we go their. The emotions were still portrayed through these shots which we are happy about. Also we originally planned to use a doll but we were able to use a real baby which will make the outcome a lot more authentic. Also, we can now use diegetic sound from the baby instead of editing in, a non-diegetic sound. This will be a much more believable and make the experience for the audience a lot more tense as they know that a real baby is being used.  Everything else went according to plan and the outcome is as we expected. By using editing we will now create the gripping effect for the audience and create the film.
