Friday 26th February - Filming and capturing

Today we began filming. We looked at our storyboard and And figured out what was the scene that we could film first in terms of closeness of the location and if the actors were available. We found that the location for the forest shot was closet and so went on to film there. We also took note of the weather. It was a dull, rainy day which was perfect for the atmosphere we were trying to create. We took our storyboard with us so that we could look back at the original ideas we had got planned and stick to them. As me and Shaun had already gone to take the location shots we knew where it was and where we needed to place the camera. We then began to film. We set the white balance and placed Shaun in position. It took us a while to get the right shot of him walking but we eventually got there. We then shot inside the forest and this went well. Charlotte filmed this part well. I filmed the part outside the forest and this went well as well. We chose Shaun well for this part as he is patient and knew how to walk in time with the camera. We then filmed some extra sound shots of the twigs in the forest crunching so that we could at that in later, as all we could hear was the bluuring of the wind which did not sound good. We then came back to the classroom and captured what we had shot onto premier. We selected the scenes and next lesson we shall start to edit them.
