First filming attempt

On Saturday (26th january) we went to 2 of our locations and started our filming. The initial shots we filmed was the main performance shot at Dunorlan park which we found took a considerable amount of time to set up the cameras and set up the shot at various angles. We filmed a medium long shot of Neil and close ups of both his face whilst singing and of the guitar to reinforce the authenticity necessary to adhere t0 the conventions.

We recorded various shots in the house for the start of the video where the boy and girl wake up and we also recored the other main performance shot of Neil in the house whilst sitting on a sofa. We managed to add some movement to this shot by resting the camera on a skateboard and slowly moving the skateboard from right to left to create a panning shot and we also made a pedding shot by moving the camera up and down.

We will be continuing filming this saturday in an attempt to record the remaining shots and visit our final location, a graveyard, for the shots towards the end of the video.
