Fortnightly reflection

I had aimed to make a post every fortnight in this project reflecting on how things have been going. This is my second.

There's not much to say really. The 1st - 5th of Feb went well. We spent our time ironing out our idea, making it so that we had thought of everything that could go wrong and finding a solution. We made a story board for the 1st 40 seconds of the video and then made an animatic out of this. At this stage i was feeling positive about the project and it seemed like everything was going to go smoothly.

However the week of the 8th - 12th where we were supposed to be getting all our test footage i got ill and only came into college for one day. We got a tiny bit of test footage from newmarket road with our performer but it wasn't much.

The next week was half term and we had hoped that because we hadn't got any test footage we would be able to shoot some over half term but it never happened because we were too focused on our social life. This meant that the following week where we where meant to get all our real footage we didn't really know what was going to work etc.

The week of filming did not go to plan at all. On monday there was a trip which cut that day as a chance to shoot. Then our performer was not free until yesterday afternoon but still there was a time limit. We did not use our time well either which meant we didn't film very much. Today we are going to shoot everything at 1.30. I feel very motivated to do this and i think it will go well. We cannot shoot at the weekend as me and tilly both have work.
