Filming: Day 2

Introduction
We all decided to meet up at 11:00 AM to complete our second filming session, however we didn't actually begin filming as a group till 1:30 AM due to many issues that occured in this specific session.

Filming
About 2 days before filming, texts were sent out however there were worded incorrectly, therefore some of us believed that the day of filming had been changed, therefore me and Paul were late due to a lack of communication. So due to this error we were 1hr and 45 minutes late, and when I arrived Paul told me he only arrived at the location 20 minutes before I did but no shots were filmed with him before I got to the location due to dicussions that were wasting time.

When I arrived at the location where we were filming, Amber and Kayleigh had shown me what they had filmed, however I was suprsised that they filmed some shots that didnt need to be re-shot as they could have still been used and wouldnt of disrupted the contiuity, but this wasted time itself so the time but I wasnt there when the decisions were made which meant Amber and Kayleigh werent as productive as they could of been.

After discussing what to film next, a group of youths came to the car park and were making it difficult for the us to film, therefore we all decided to leave the car park for 10 minutes and wait inside Tesco which was nearby but Amber and Amy got side tracked therefore we were in tesco for 20 minutes till we returned to the car park. When we arrived back, the youths had disappeared and we relized that almost 2 and a half hours had gone and only a few shots were filmed and these particular shots were re-filmed shots.

This is Raw Footage of one of the shots I filmed in this session. It shows a static shot of Paul walking towards the camera.
This is the beam which we filmed behind.

After the match on action shot I filmed Paul walking round the corner which is a continuitation of the previous shots I filmed which was a match on action shot of Paul. With one shot walking through the gate and the other out of the gate. The shot was a static shot of Paul walking towards the camera, however after I filmed this we all watched it back and though that the shot was to long but I suggested that we can make it shorter when editing.

I tried to film Paul from behind.
However before we filmed the static shot of Paul we tried to get one of him walking into the car park from behind, but this didnt work probably as we realized most of car park would be seen and therefore the continuity would be disrupted.

Another shot I filmed was of Amy walking past the metal beam, however Kayleigh first attempted this and the camera was on a angle due to the unsteady ground and the camera was slightly shaky, so when Kayleigh offered if anyone else could try I attempted the shot and managed to get Amy walking past the beam as best as possible even though it was quite tricky.
