Previously I have stated that our car scene was shot with a car mount, but we also wanted to show the main character actually getting into the car to avoid confusion.
Before the car mount segment, we decided to address how the character actually drove to pick up her best friend with a couple of seconds in between her getting ready and the two girls in the car together.
To emphasize this, the actors, Ethan and I decided to have a camera in the back seat of the car (which is shown in the video above).
This camera placement will show up as an over-the-shoulder shot in order to display what the main character is doing. This camera angle was what we thought was best to display our vision perfectly.
It clearly shows the young girl getting into her car and turning it on. Even though it may sound simple and stupid, we thought it was necessary to show that she in on the way to pick up her best friend.
Ok yes, this part is only a couple seconds, but we needed this or else the audience will be confused about what is going on.
We also utilized this angle and idea to show the accelerator of the car. This idea was a last minute idea which we though to show the girls' excitement of doing fun activities together.
