Practice Filming

After getting our equipment on Friday, Lucy, Athena and I went out into the big wide world (Enfield Town) to film some shots. Using the flip, we got an over the shoulder shot, some close-ups, tracking shots and zooming shots, as well as some others. We fashioned a dolly shot from a trolley, which we are very proud of.
Seeing as we didn't have a lesson today, we decided to edit yesterday (Tuesday) to meet the deadline of Friday. Lots of fun editing again, and Athena proposed that we use Intro by Alt-J as the soundtrack. Lucy and I loved it as soon as we heard it and we messed around and got it to fit with the film, which was something we hadn't done before - we had put music at the end of our prelim but for this one, we wanted the beats to fit what was happening.
Despite Miss Foster asking us to put the whole film in black and white, we did edit a few into sepia because we thought it looked a bit nicer. Our argument is "We're experimenting!!!!". But most of it is in black and white, which looks "sophisticated", as Miss Foster so adamantly believes - I think I'm a bit more impartial to sepia but have a look for yourselves:
