Evaluation Of Filming So Far

The footage we have shot mostly so far is jogging and nature shots. The main focus of our trailer is the jogging footage which is the focus point for our title and our storyline.

When filming similar shots on different days we had to be conscious of the weather and of the costumes and props which we used. If we filmed in different weather conditions then the film will look sloppy and wouldnt have as great an effect. Also with props and costumes. We had to make sure that we didnt change the props and costumes used in shot to shot as this may come across once again, sloppy.

Most of the camera work so far has been conducted by myself and Will, whilst Karis has been in charge of taking still images and pictures, with Harry having a more of a director role in filming. So far we havent really been too experimental with the camera, optic mostly for slight camera movement, with the majority being a static camera. However, for this years trailer we have used differnt cammera heights and made more use of the zoom function. In our last project we tended to use mainly hand held camera and medium shots. This year we wanted to try and do something different with the camera, to give the film a more traditional feel.

We have most of the footage needed to make a gangster trailer and will start the editing process as soon as possible.
