On Friday the 13th of November Me, Ollie, Brad and Luca went to London to shoot the main part of our video. We progressed along the Southbank and ticked off every shot on the shot list as we filmed, when we got to London a storm was brewing so we made good use of our time and decided to venture into the Tate Modern. We used the colourful art expeditions in our footage, this was helpful as our main theme is colour, the footage also helps convey a positive message abut youth because it creates the illusion that young people spend their spare time at art expeditions. I feel we were able to make good use of our time because we had planned well before hand and managed to shoot a useable amount of quality footage.
My personal contribution was Directing people out of our shot as well as filming all the footage we collected with three characters in shot. If I had to describe my contribution in one one word, that word would be pivotal.
The shot list was extremely useful during filming because it saved us a lot of time due to the fact that it meant we already knew what shot we had to get next before we started filming it. This was very different from our practice shoot with the powder because we had a much clearer idea in our heads of the shots we needed.
Best shots: the best shot we filmed was the extreme longshot of Brad from a birds eye view which then panned towards the river Thames. although the shot was a thing of beauty it is quite a slow moving shot so its usability in our video is questionable because it may not fit with our rapid cutting rate.
Some shots were problematic to film not because they were to complex but because the weather was ghastly. whilst filming the shots of Luca being "brought to life" the rain was pouring down like no ones business so we went to the Tate modern seeking cover, we found this cover along with an abundance of Art.
