This outfit is for one of the extra's in the title sequence

Task 43 - Reflection activity 1

On our second day of filming we managed to film; tracking shots, mid shots, medium shots, close up, panning shots, extreme long shots, long shots and tilt shot. We used a range of equipment, that being Joshua's own camera, a tripod to film our still and panning shots, a fig-rig to film our tracking shots. However our extreme long shots and long shots need to be re-shot because it wasn't focused and the camera was a bit shaky, therefore we're going back to Memorial park on Thursday in West Ham to re-shot our extreme long shots and long shots to ensure that they are focused and not shaky.

The Different Options

Whilst editing we looked at  titles to add to our video. We have the one on the left which would be on the black background before the video starts or the one on the right which would be on the video whilst it plays before being transitioned out. We are not sure on what to choose yet..

First editing session.

In today's lesson we are editing our chicken shop scene, we are trying to make our scenes run smoothly.

First day of filming.

In today's lesson we managed to film the chicken shop scene where Sara walks into the chicken and chip shop and leaves. We used a variety of shots, such as; wide shots, tracking shots and medium shots, in this scene and it will be used for our flashback in our movie.

New location and shots
