Week 3 - FILMING

On week 3 we filmed our opening sequence. Anna and I met, and then we both met Catherine, in our costumes. I brought a bag with touch ups for make-up and the camera and other props we would need, we also brought the tripod. When we arrived at the location (A house in New Malden) we all sat down and decided where we would start, which we thought it was right to start the filming at the beginning of the opening sequence that we had planned, this was because the last time we filmed, we started filming from the end of the sequence and then to the beginning, and we wanted to switch things around this time, and this worked well and made more sense. We all worked as a group and knew the ideas we wanted to get across to other people, although we knew initially what we wanted to film, where and at what angle, we did change things slightly during the process and we thought they seemed better, and these worked well too. The dynamics of the group worked well as we all get along and I felt that every idea we each had was thought on and a rational decision was made. After filming each clip we would then look at it to decide if that was what we were happy with, if we were not, we would then shoot that scene again until it was up to our standards of what we wanted to put across to our audience. The filming lasted around an hour or so and we were satisfied at the end of it that we had achieved what we wanted to, and we felt we could do alot with what we had. Personally I was very happy of what we had filmed because I felt that the quality of the filming was great as we had used HD filming, the costumes worked well and the location went well with the story line. I know that we can make something great with this and I hope that all of our efforts show in the editing of the clips.
