Summary so far.

summary for filming...
In the last few lessons we have been out on location filming on the top of Manchester Arndale car park. Both times we went filming the weather was relatively similar, so we were quite lucky and hopefully the scenes won't differ too much. We filmed a variety of shots including point of view shots and close ups, we also did a few panning and tilting shots. We used a puddle in the ground to create a reflective effect when tilting the camera from the main characters feet to head which we though looks very effective. We also filmed two establishing shots from a birds eye view to show the audince the locations in which we were shooting, we filmed a typical landmark of Mancherter (the wheel) to emphazise this.

summary for editing...
Filming went well and we have managed to get most of the scenes we need. We have captured the clips that were on the 'canon' digital video camera and put the on final cut pro. We then edited the clips toghether and worked out we should only need one more period of filming to get all the scenes we need to complete the filming. Once we captured all the clips we renamed them according to what they were off, we then put them in order of how they would be in the final piece using final cut pro using the imac computers. We used the 'mark in' and 'mark out' tool on the keyboard to cut the extra bits of the clips we did'nt need or would'nt match.

We have all contributed to the direction of these scenes, and find that we are still working very well as a group. We have been taking it in turns as the role of the camera person, director, and runner, and we are all now very confident with using the camera and tripod.
