The first of these changes was from the planned extreme close-up of Rose in her room zooming out to a match-on-action of her in the park, which can be seen in frame 3-6. When filming this, we found that the camera's zoom did not allow for both the extreme close-up and the framing needed to create the match-on-action to the scene before in one take. Instead of this, we decided to switch frames 5 and 6 and zoom out as far as possible from the bedroom shot, then use the bridge shot in between that and the park scene so that we did not need a match-on-action.
The next change was frame 11, which shows a hand, assumed to be Rose's dad's, grabbing Rose's face. Despite filming this shot, we decided not to include it as it made the opening seem too much like a trailer, as it contrasted a lot with the 'weird' scenes throughout the rest of the opening.
Another alteration during filming was frames 12-14, which were planned to be shot in a white kitchen to fit with the washed out colour palette we were aiming for. However, the location we used proved to be too small to shoot with the desired framing, and so we moved the setting to a living room, which, despite having much warmer lighting and colouring, allowed us to film the shot of her falling. We also had to change the shot type, as we could not circle around the two characters, and so instead we used a shot-reverse-shot. We were still, however, able to shoot a match-on-action to the shot of Rose falling into the bath.

Originally, we planned for the shot of Rose in the bath, shown in frame 15, to contain black water, but after discussion we decided that it would be unnecessary and potentially confusing and that we preferred the idea of her face being somewhat distorted underwater.
Frame 17 shows our plan to transition from the title screen to a close-up of Rose on a stage, circling round her to reveal an audience of empty chairs. However, due to time restraints whilst filming, we were unable to put out all the chairs and so decided to reintroduce the audience to the style of the opening using two long shots beforehand.
The last change is in the closing hospital scene shown in frame 24. Our storyboard shows that we were going to have the doctor repeat Rose's name several times before walking out of the room, however, after creating our first draft we found this to be too conclusive and so gave the doctor another line and changed the shot types from a zoom out to a close-up to mid-shot and back to a close-up.
