Group: First Film Shoot Reflection

On Friday 2nd of March, we signed out the equipment and travelled to our location in Tunbridge Wells. When we got there we carefully set up the equipment such as the tripod, dolly and track.


We shot about half of the opening - up to the shot where the protagonist (Jack Lyle) looks over at the city, noticing the power plant (Nine Mile Point) that has caused the epidemic to spread throughout the United Kingdom.


We found the dolly shots incredibly effective and the camera track made the footage look very cinematic.


We conquered the problems we had previously encountered with continuity from our preliminary task, and ended up doing about 5 takes for each shot to ensure we had the perfect one.


To conclude, we all learnt a lot from the shoot, and were very happy with the footage we came away with that day.
