14/10/15 Filming

What we did

On Wednesday 14th October 2015, Our group shot our first night shots at our locations in Queen Elizabeth Park in Stratford. The park was basically empty apart from a few runners and cyclists. We shot the scenes such as for the first few lines of the chorus and the part before brandy comes into the video. Rashaan our actor lip synched and acted for a lot of the scenes from our Story board. Shots such as the one where he walks into the camera screen and then sits down, while the camera is panning from right to left, as he sits down the camera continues to pan. Another example of a shot we took was, where our actor Rashaan walked out of focus on the bridge full of light.


Problems

The first problem we encountered was that as we started filming, we encountered the park security who made it very clear to us that we would be unable to use the tripod. The security man also told us that we could ask for permission for next time, but he doesn't know who we should ask as the park is privately owned by a massive group of people such as MP's and Arabs. Therefore, we had to record the scenes manually. Since the temperature was really low, the video came out slightly shaky, we did manage to film all of the night scenes but with great difficulty.
