Filming: Shoot 2

For our second attempt at filming our previous experience had helped. By having two previous experiences in filming it made for are most efficient shoot yet. Areas I believe that I have improved the most in include setting up a shot or "framing" with the camera also as a group setting up the mise-en-scene has improved from our first draft to portray a more accurate representation of the emotion we wanted to show

The acting was pretty much the same time from our rough cut put there was new challenges that faced us. As seen in the image on the right on of the things we had to do was try and control a dog that featured in the establishing shot. As could be expected this was tricky but something we overcame. Again the bright midday sun was also something we had to comprise with as the camera auto-exposure would adjust itself every time the camera was moved so we had to thing carefully about camera position.

What I learnt from this shoot is that again prior planning is essential to success although you must be able to adapt to the situation at hand knowing the exact shots we wanted made for an effeicient session that produced the results we wanted


Following this shoot the main focus from me and my group is to find an appropriate non diegetic score and continue editing. So far editing is something that we have found to be a natural strength however we still need to learn and nurture skills in producing high-quality titles as the previous were below the standard.
