Shooting


     Claire and I shot our film opening on the 8th of January 2013. We went to our local park, Ravenscroft park in Barnet. We felt that this was a good place to film because of the surroundings of trees and grass etc. This park was also a good choice because it has a well structured footpath which was an ideal place to go for a run.
     Claire, Jemma and I all acted, with Claire filming the majority of the sequence. We set the equipment up and we both explained to our other actor what she had to do. Claire and I both took part in being in the film and filming parts too. Myself and our actor came dressed like they were going for a run. We focused on what we was wearing because it had to be obvious that we was going for a jog. This also looked more professional because you would not see two girls in the park with a face full of make up and in really nice clothes going for a run.
     Claire set the camera up in a good position to be able to get the whole shot in, then we filmed all of the parts we needed doing lots of different takes from different angles. We did this so we could use lots of different shots when it came to editing.
     At the end of the filming we managed to get a shot of an ambulance driving past. We did this to make the sequence look more realistic.


     The only problem with our filming is that the microphone did not work so no sound was recorded. Also, we are not fully convinced with the level of filming, as it was our first time, we weren't completely familiar with what we should have been doing, so we have decided to reshoot the sequence, and this time make sure that the sound works.
