Production- Our First Day Filming!

Today we started our filming the first shots in our shot list as these were shots that were within the school grounds which meant that we could film these within our free periods opposed to many of our other shots which require us to travel to locations we have found. 

We started by heading to the position to take our first shot of Sean. The shot was a bird eyes view of him walking along to firstly establish the scene but also make him look small and vulnerable as he is a victim in our film. However we planned on taking the shot from on top of the roof of our sixth form building yet once we got up there we found that the door had been bolted shut. Because of this we had to compromise whilst still getting the same connotations from the shot. To avoid losing this we tried filming from a window from the top floor and we were able to capture the same shot from this different position. The rest of the filming involved ground level shots and it went well with little errors. Therefore overall we were pleased with are first days filming!
