In this lesson I was the only one to be here so I had to come up with the rough, but not final idea for filming. I have used different people in my film as it was easier to get some filming done this lesson then waiting to do it tomorrow.
The idea I came up with was as followed;
Fillmed at parkwood sixth form
- Molly walks down the corridor
- Walks into Courtney and Molly and Courtney both drop items in hand
- Courtney "Sorry" both pick up items. Courtney picks up Molly's pencilcase by accident. both walk away
- Molly opens door
- Sits down sees she has no pen to work with
- Asks Lydia "Hey can I borrow a pen?"
- Lydia "Yeah Sure"
- Molly "Thanks"
- Then starts her work.
Shots that I will use in my work
- Tracking Shots
- Extreme Close up (on hand opening the door)
- Mid Shot
- Long Shot
This is unfinished, will be finished tomorrow when 100 percent on the final idea.

Experimental Footage
I discovered while working on my experimental footage that the framing angle distance was relatively easy to get to grips with, but was sometimes challenging as we had limited places to film so we had to think on the spot of what angle distance would be best for the scene we were going to shoot.
I found moving shots, such as the tracking shot more difficult to do because you had to make sure you have the exact angle of the person being filmed at all times so the veiwer doesn't get confused at what the are seeing, also you had to follow them but to make the shot count you have to be quite still with the filming and I found this quite difficult as with a tracking shot you don't use a tripod.
The planning and setting up of the shot was quite slow at the start but as we got used to the camera equipment and started to share more ideas the setting up for the shot was realtively easy to do. But I feel we can improve the work that we have done by adding more ideas to the equation and also as we were all new to the filming stage we could really benefit from becoming more familiar with it as there was a lot of mucking about with the equipment as we were having trouble with the different cameras we were using.
Shooting a scene from several positions was very easy as there are loads we could have chosen, so we chose the best ones for the places we filmed.
