shooting schedule

Today

today 30/3/12 I had went into school to do the finishing touches on my editing then realised that the still images doesn’t really fit into the continuity of film so I had grabbed a camera and tri pod and started to film Soho road then I had imported it and saw where it would fit in my film. Then I just put the finishing touches in my film such as the titles and the transactions i will need and I will give my footage to my teacher the next time I see him to see if there is any improvements to be made.

Day 3

Today I decided to shoot in my free periods on a Wednesday afternoon so me and my partner had to bring out a year 7 kid from his physical education lesson so I had to go to the heads of colleges to ask them what lesson he has next and had go myself to that teacher and ask him if it is possible to get that student out their lesson. Once I had done that I had got all my actors and set up the sound, the following problems were that my partner kept on laughing in the scene and that there was lot of background interruptions so I had to wait for people to go before I could film certain parts also we had to take many shots of the character because he wasn’t really doing it right or the other characters were having a laugh.

day 2

Today I decided to shoot after school it only consisted of 3 of us in the scene I think that it went quite well however the only problem was that the battery kept on running out every two minutes so I had to keep charging it maybe i should have checked before I took all the equipment and this time i checked that all my shots were in focus so I had played each shot back overall the day went good and I had tried using a new technique by using a elastic band for my panning shot so it runs more smoothly.

Day1 of shooting

day 1

On this day I had setted up all my props which were going to be in my film

• table
• table cloth
• briefcase
• powder which was supposed to luk lyk drugs
• money
• paper roll up
• fake blood

then I had to call all my actors to come down to shoot the film however some people said that they were stuck in traffic or they was somewhere else so i had to make them come later in the day and then i had checked if all the lighting was right and that the sound worked properly.Then when we were shooting the film we were having a laugh and it was great fun however we wasted alot of time doing it however we did shoot the scenes we had wanted. But when we were shooting our drive by scene it was really dark and we didnt hav the lighting to make everything clear.
The following day when we had gave the footage and we had a look at it and had realised the whole film was out of shot and the drive by scene was to dark this was a disaster so we had reshoot the whole scene again.

my preliminary video

This my first video that I had made it was quite challenging because it was awkward scene for the characters to do and that the actors kept on laughing because of this however I tried to edit my best.
