Tuesday 29th November

Tuesday 29th November 2011- Re-filming shots (for ending)- Whole Group

Today was the definite final filming session for the video. We used an on-site location in school to re-film a small section of the ending where our main character is shown to be standing on top of a car park, ready to jump (both seen at the start and end of the video). However there was one shot that we used twice that didnt really work and was probably a bit too long and boring to use twice. So we went out to film our main character repeating the actions he did in the car park (27th Septemember 2011) where he holds his arms out and looks down to where he might be jumping. We achieved this by shooting it from a low angle and on a cloudy day for continuity. We also made sure the angle was low enough to not feature surrounding trees and buildingd within the school. We tried as much as possible to make it look like we were filming in the car park, but with a combination of weather/clothing continuity, action matching and the low angle shot we successfully achieved ther shots we wanted to go after the shot in question. We managed to reduce the length of the already existing shot and we put the new shot, filmed today, after it and made sure that the actions were continous, in which they were. It worked and it suits the edit really good.
