Filming Day 2

Today we filmed in stratford, E15 and we planned to film in Ilford, IG1.
Our original plan to film in stratford went ahead and we did our opening scenes and filmed the skyscrapers as well as other random shots to use later on for specific effects. We did our opening sequences in Stratford and played around with specific blurs to connote specific messages.
We did not however have all our actors which delayed some of the filming, thus the reason we concentrated on filming the background and surroundings.
We wanted to go to Ilford after these shots to meet up with our other actors at our filming scene, however a few problems came across, the fact the actors had work meant that we could not do the shots with the actors.

Our ilford scene was going to be the argument scene where we shoot the argument between the 2 actors to show in the music video an argument scene which we will sync with our music video.
We went to Stratford and Ilford to film the next stage of the music video. We left straight from lesson and went to our location. I personally found our location in stratford. The fact the weather was great meaning it was very brigh and sunny meant that we could have good shots of the performance as well as the surrounding. . Once we got on to our rooftop, we started preparing the camera and tripod and the actors got themselfs ready as well. Once we were prepared, everyone got into position and we started filming. We done a variety of shots keeping editing in mind at all times. We had to ensure that we knew what kind of editing techniques we propose to use in specific shots. We done our first session of filming in Stratford and had a little break.
We filmed many shots, even if we did not propse to use them in our final creation of the music video. We did this so that we have backup footage incase we dont prefer one shot we could use our extra footage to replace the footage disliked.

After this long and tiring session of filming we all had a lunch break and got something to eat. After this we made our way to our Ilford location. As the stratford scene took longer then expected, we went quite late to our Ilford location and were not allowed to film there at the time as the location was being used for other purposes. This meant our filming was was delayed for another day.
