Production Log Entry 3

Today all of our group went to Thamesmead during our 2 hour media lesson to film some more scenes for our video. We shot one of the scenes that comes in between the concert shots towards the end of the video. We felt these shots were good as we experimented with different ways of filming it. However, we originally intended to use a dolly so that the camera could follow King J when he was walking. We found that the ground was too uneven and it wouldn't have been possible to get one long smooth shot by using the dolly as it was getting stuck on the pavement. We instead decided to use the camera handheld to follow King J. Although this was quite shaky we decided we would stabilise it in Final Cut when it comes to editing. If it remains shaky we will have to reshoot with a dolly in some other way. We also shot a short scene of King J standing in front of a car and some extra shots of the car and the surrounding area. These shots weren't particularly necessary but they will useful to fill any gaps if there are any in the video.
