Shoot 3: Shoot: 29th November

We shot today and the shoot didn't exactly go according to plan because we ran out of valuable time, we also only used two locations as appose to the three/four we were planning on using, also again light was a problem as we were shooting towards the end of daylight hours.

Nevertheless we managed to shoot two key scenes and sequences that we amy be using in our final cut.  These were a shot we were experimenting with on a mattress we were using. Our main character would be rolling around on this emphasising his lack of sleep. We also used the chair prop in a different location with a field in  the backdrop and we plan on using the layering editing tool to overlap theses shots into one.

Therefore, we will be using our shooting schedule for this shoot for our forth shoot to save time because we have missed some vital shots and scenes that still need to be done. As a result, it is arguable to say that we are behind now however, we will be using the time we have left efficiently to get our full rough cut shot and edited by the 4th of december or the 6th if time is needed.


Shoot 3: Planning: 28th November, field, skatepark, Ilkley, graffiti wall

This is a post on our planning for the third shoot we are going to do we have focused on the key locations where we will be shooting at, and will be shooting both narrative and performance footage and hopefully we will have enough footage to create our first rough cut. From previous experiences we know that we have to plan our shoots before hand to use our time a lot more efficiently. 

Here is our shooting schedule for our third shoot



For our third shoot we are planning on shooting at five different locations as you can see from the shooting schedule above. Luckily two members of the group can drive therefore we can fit the chair in the back of the car and use it in any ideal location.

Sample scene 2 feedback no.2


Sample Scene 2 feedback

This is feedback for our time lapse experiment, the outcome was very good and what we are hoping to hear when we get audience feedback. Also she gave relevant ways to improve the video which was good as they were only slight improvements that can be altered quickly.

Sample Scene 1 feedback

This is our first piece of audience feedback we got from our sample sequence one. Our feedback was from our target audience which is god as we could get ideas from our peers as well as them being our target audience. This was the edit that Declan did with the layering of our main character sitting in his chair. In the final cut pour character will be lip syncing in these performance shots.
