Production - Filming Session 2

Filming Session 27/10/15

On our second day of filming we went to an exhibition where we took some potential pictures for our ancillary work. We also recorded some footage which we could potentially use in the music video. We then went to Greenwich where we took some footage inside the Emirates cable cars and near the river. 

When we where waiting to enter the exhibition it took longer than expected, this then delayed us. Also, within the exhibition as it was a smoke and light exhibition, there were a number of health and safety issues involved as it was difficult to see more than a arms length way. When we where inside it took us a while to get the hang of being inside as we all kept losing each other due to us disappearing in the smoke. It took us quite a bit of time to find the exit which delayed us even further.

The journey from the exhibition to Greenwich took us nearly an hour. When we arrived in Greenwich it started getting darker due to the time change in the UK. This meant that some of the planing that we did that was initial meant to be during the day was now night time shots, this leading to us changing the structure of our storyboard. We initial wanted to start our music video with a pan of the view from the cable cars but this ended up being in the dark.

When we were filming our base tracks near the river it was during the evening therefore it was dark. This meant that we had to use the lighting. Again we weren't to happy with the footage when we went to review it as the lighting looked harsh and it was a bit shaking as it was hand held.

Also, our SD card was corrupted therefore it kept interrupting us while we were recording and our base tracks were not complete from start to finish.
