Test
Shoot
Last week we went
off in our groups to find a location and film a test shoot for our opening
sequence. We found a really good location for the tent section of our opening
sequence in the woods. We didn’t have any of our props (tent) which is
obviously a vital part to the scene but I feel as though we worked well with
what we had.
We had to shoot
the whole thing on my iPhone so obviously the camera work was shaky and it wasn’t
nearly as good quality as we hope the final product to be. We focused it on the
shot types and came up with loads of different ideas as to how we could
manipulate our surroundings to our benefit and take advantage of everything
around us.
Despite our
efforts, the footage we did have didn’t turn out too great as a lot of the good
shots got lost on my phone because it ran out of storage which was very
frustrating, so we decided to try again in a different location. We then focused
on the bath scene at the beginning and end of the opening sequence and to do
this we went up and used the bath in Hurtwood House. This was not a very
accurate representation of what we would hope for the bathroom to look like in
the real thing. This went well however it wasn’t exactly what we would hope it
would turn out to be, but it is only a test shoot and it gave us an accurate
idea as to how we would film it and the sort of angles we are looking for so it
was helpful in that respect.
