43. Reflection from first filming session

In this first session of filming, we filmed in Angel at a bus stop local to City And Islington College. We then also filmed at the college entrance gates and inside the college canteen. There were many set backs but overall it was quite successful, especially one specific issue we thought we would face and then didn't which we were really pleased about.

What went well:

Firstly we competed one of our scenes in the time given. It rained which was a major set back as it wasted a lot of time especially since we had to film outside. But luckily the rain stopped and we were able to film a whole scene with a variety of shots which was also another success.

The issue we thought we would face but overcame was getting permission to film on the bus. We had asked the driers permission and he allowed us to film. Since we were already set up it was done smoothly and not rushed but also managing not to hold up passengers on the bus. I'm very pleased it went well because It was one of our important ideas that we really

wanted to make happen

Problems/issues we have:
Apart from the weather there are other issues that we have noticed which our to do with some of our shots filmed.

This has to be re done because it has too much head space
we want it to be more tighter

In this shot you can see the reflection of our camera woman
and so this also has to be re filmed

this was one of our shots that came out blurry.
When we re do it we will use a tripod instead.

Next Time we film: 

We will have a back up in case the weather becomes a issue.
Also make sure all our characters needed for that day are in college so we can do the scene
