Half-Term Filming

Last Monday our group went to the car park location where we scheduled to wrap up filming! After a freezing cold morning all made up of a trolley tracking shot, various outfit changes and an overload of filming we managed to finish getting all of the footage we needed to complete our film. Now for the laborious task of picking and choosing the right parts of the footage to put into our final film. 
I think this is one of the best times we've had filming as we felt very productive and were all on the same page in terms of what we wanted to film and what frames would be best. We also had a chance to experiment with a few shots including a 360 tracking shot which didn't go as well as we had hoped it would. 









Evaluation Prep

Rachel and I have printed out our questions and answers on separate sheets just to help us memorise it slightly easier. They're all generally the same length but some are a little longer than others as we felt we needed to explain ourselves in further detail.  

Showcase Vlog

Our thoughts before the showcase later that night and how it could help us in our evaluations.
