Filming

Now we have gotten into the habit and structure of filming, it has made it easier for us as a group to plan and structure how we are going to shoot the rest of our clips. We have filmed three clips outside and we used a bag as a prop that Lily wears slumped on her shoulders in the clips. The prop does not match our idea and brainstorming of props that we wanted as it is not as colourful. An issue that we came across is that us having to shoot extra scenes outside and possibly re shooting puts us in a position where we have to get us much as we can done in one day due to weather changes. In our clips that we filmed today, it was dry and quite sunny. In our future shots that we will be filming, we must try and match our previous footage as much as we can because it needs to look accurate and all of the footage must flow into each other or it is going to look unprofessional and messy. Another key area that we must be accurate on is making sure that we wear the same clothes to much the previous footage - this is a key element that we need to make sure we get right as a group as when we filmed our continuity task, we dragged out the filming and entire process so much that we did end up wearing different clothes. This is also due to the lack of planning and structure we had during the process of filming the continuity task and as a group we have worked hard together to make sure that we do not make the same mistakes. 

Today when we were filming, a positive was that the weather was still and there was no wind. I was worried that if it was windy when we started filming, the camera would pick up the noise of the wind and also visually the footage would look messy if it was really windy.
