Production set up reflection

  Evidence:

In the picture above I can be seen setting up the camera before filming the scene where Michael is walking. I am setting up the camera in such a way so that it focuses solely on Michaels trainers. This was because as a team we wanted to try and cover as many camera angles as possible and having seen this type of angle frequented in gritty modern day British dramas we felt as if we could implement it into our opening sequence because we were going for an edgy look as well. This was difficult because as the cameraman I had to get into a specific position which required me to kneel down and walk at the same time. The outcome was better then expected because we came out with a good clip and it came out to our standard. This was one of the first days I started filming and after this we got to filming other scenes.

In this picture you can see me telling the team members what to say in the scene that we were about to film. This was slightly difficult because we would begin filming and then one actor could freeze in the moment and forget their lines which meant we would have had to re film that part. Despite this overall the script came in handy as it helped us remember the majority of out lines and even if we could not remember certain lines we still had an idea of what they were about so we were able to improvise any lines which were forgotten. It was difficult as we often forgot certain lines however we got there in the end. After we rehearsed this we got to actually filming it.

Here I was telling the crew about all the hazards we had to face when filming and that we had to do our best to eliminate any potential threats or hazards so here I can be seen going over the risk assessment material and talking about how we shouldn't have any loose cables or any strong lighting as members of the crew could be sensitive to that.  I found it hard to pick areas to film because there was quite alot of litter in most area of the fields where we filmed which is a hazard however I found it easy to correctly set up the tripods and all of the equipment. This was not difficult as al i had to do was explain what risk we had to be aware of and then after this we got to filming the rest of the opening sequence.

In terms of the locations you can see me in a field area alongside a fence and trees and this was used in alot of the scenes in out filming. We used this area because it was open and in out film we needed fight scenes and running scenes so the park was our best options. I found it hard getting from one place to another as the park was a big space yet I found it easy getting the scenes done as we were pretty confident as to what we needed to incorporate into our scenes. Again we experienced no real problems as we ensured we were safe whilst filming and after practicing the parkour scene we then filmed it.
