Filming!

My group and I completed all our filming for the 2 minute opening of a film. We began filming using the storyboard as our guide. We didn't have many problems when filming as we played back each scene we filmed and re-done it if it did not look right or there was something wrong with the mise en scene. It took about 3 hours to film but I think it went very well. We shot each scene a few times so that when editing we had a choice of which is best. We managed to complete all the shots and have enough to fill the 2 minutes up.

We began filming and all shared a part in the filming. I chose to film the part in the field with the loser walking over the hill. I started by setting up the tripod and filming just the field as an establishing shot. I then got Romano to start walking across and at first I done a long shot then zoomed in to have a mid shot and then a close up when he was in front of the camera. When we edit we want to chop each different shot down to around 5 seconds so that it's quick and shows his journey but in a shorter time.

A problem which occured was when we were filming we had a few people walking into the shot and waving at the camera and when a bus drove past we noticed our reflection in the window. We then re-filmed these shots.
