Production Diary Day 1

Date 18/11/16
Location Art Room, Manshead School, Dunstable
Scene(s) filmed Title sequence
Today we filmed approximately half of the title
sequence, using the artwork from one of our illustrators. In order to do this, we
used the following equipment a tripod, camera, and camera slider. Within this,
we worked collaboratively in terms of creativity and technique, however Chris
was allocated the role of camera operator (as shown in the images below). By
working as a team, we were able to set up both the scene
and equipment as quickly as possible, this including the
creation of background props (as shown to the left, wherein
Bailee is holding a drawing that is featured in the
background of some shots). Personally, I undertook my role
as director of the production, discussing creative and
technical decisions regarding filming with my fellow team
members.
Evaluation
Overall, I think that our first day of filming was highly
successful. Having reviewed the footage, we are satisfied
that we have produced work which is of a high quality, and
which we will use within post-production. I think that we
communicated well as a team, combining group input and working together to
produce the best possible footage. We will, however, need to use this location
again, when filming the second half of our title sequence. This is because the
remaining illustrations required were not
available to us today, thus meaning we will
have to continue filming the scene at a
later date.
