The actual process of shooting required us breaking an egg. Our first plan was for a vase to break down and shatter. We would have needed to clean the glass from the floor to do so successfully. We may have tripped on it or Miranda's dog might have eaten it if we hadn't thoroughly cleaned everything. Breaking one of the vases wouldn't be the safest choice for filming so we decided to smash a egg.
The price of eggs is increasing so we were only allowed to break one egg. To get the perfect shot, we filmed one scene from two different angles at the same time. One of the angles is of the egg falling onto the camera lens. That shot might not be used in the final project, but we thought it would be a good idea to include if possible.
The egg produced the same effect we wanted with the vase, which is that when the new character, Jess, rings the doorbell and arrives, something goes wrong and breaks. This would show how Jess's arrival instantly results in a negative event, creating an eerie or suspicious tone. This relates to the opening scene of our film, which shows Sofia and Luke, the main characters, being stalked or watched by someone, creating the same eerie and suspicious tone.
