SHOOTING AND EDITING JOURNAL

Day 1 - Shooting:

• Today we stayed at Georgia's dads house and filmed the scene of the little girl getting read a fairytale book. The filming went very well as we used a range of angles that really made an affect. Also the lighting we used and the room we filmed it in really brought together the image we wanted to potray to our audience,

Day 2 Shooting:

• We planned to film today  but it ended up that the weather wasen't what we wanted so we decided still to practise and still plan exsactly how and what we were going to do. We came to the conclusion that the representation of our "hero" was all wrong and changed this immedietly ready for the next time we would shoot

Day 3 Shooting:

• Earlier today we filmed our cene wirth the "hero" and the card (Mcguffin) in Maidenhead highstreet. We tried to film in places where there were alot of people to make it as natural as possible but alos near shops so that when our audience are to watch it they know that we chose a highstreet to film. 

Day 1 Editing:

• Today we inported all of our film and put it all into Final Cut Pro we edited the first scene with the little girl and her dad, we were really happy with what we ahd done and altogether tht scence looked great! However when we came to look over the shots from the second scene with our hero and the mcguffin we wern't quiter sure if we were happy with it and if we had a wide enough range of shots and that we would have to re-shoot.

Day 4 Shooting:

• Today we decided to re-shoot the scene and took alot more shots at differnt angles and also in different places of the highstreet

Day 2 Editing:

• Today we edited the scene we had re-shot, we were alot happier with the shots we filmed and used simple techniques such as slowing the card down to give a totally diferent affect and meaning to the film also we imported our music wich also added to the affect of a dark fairtale.
• After school Bex and I stayed after school to add the finishing tocuhes onto our film such as titles.
