Filming our Project: Attempt Two

For our second attempt in filming we decided to go to Uxbridge High Street (on the 23rd January 2010 with all the group). We were filming the main sequence of our film which again consisted mainly of constant tracking shots that walked through Uxbridge with different scenery. We decided to film in Uxbridge because we wanted to have a tracking shot however also have different backgrounds and Uxbridge was the best available place to shoot at. the shoot went how we pictured it would go.

What went well: what did go well was the fact that we got a variety of shots that were steady even though we were walking around a lot of the time. WE managed to get a variety of backgrounds. We found that holding the camera on the tripod upside down was really effective and we just rotated the footage once we had imported it. We picked the right time of day (early morning) because we were not interrupted by too many people.

What Didn't Work: We had a few times where we had people getting in the way and a couple of places such as in a lift where we could not film effectively. However other then that we managed to get some decent footage that wasn't too shaky or blurry.
