Re-filming day

Re-filming day

Today we are re-filming some shots for a film. Amelia has spoken to Mr Hopkins and we have permission to film in both the workshop and one of the grand stands in our third period today. 

In the workshop we are going to film the protagonist putting on the race suit; this will introduce him well as the main character. We were lucky that Jacob was able to re-source the race suit for today otherwise we might of had to re-film all of the shots with the race suit. In the grand stand we are re-filming the scene where the protagonist walks up the stairs, we will be able to make this part longer and more interesting using a range of shots to create a preferred reading that the protagonist is focused on the race. 

For the filming we need to consider camera angles, making sure the camera is steady when we are filming etc. 

Last time we filmed the scene in the grand stand we had a problem with the shadow of the camera being on the protagonist, this time we will learn from our mistakes and check before we film and if this is a problem again we will have to think more creatively about  the camera angles we are using.
