Filming

03/02/15

We all went to Megan's house to film the arguing scenes of the parents and car scenes. We took the tripod and DSLR d1200 with the 50mm lens so that the pull focus can be shown beautifully to create the sense on tension being there. 

When filming the argument scenes, it was difficult for the parents to argue as they are not the argumentative type but once they started to get into the role i think they're performance was looking really good. I think the roles suited the parents really well as the dad is quite tall and butch representing the stereo typical view of the male dominating over the female that is innocent and vulnerable. Once we had filmed the argument scenes, we began to set up for the car scenes out side. However here we encountered a problem as the SD card that was given to us was only 8mp which was not enough space to film the car scenes inside. Here we overcame this problem by using an iPhone 5s which we knew for a fact has a good camera.

I think the shoot we did today went pretty well as we filmed on time and everything was organised of what we will film where and of who. We will now wait till Wednesday's Media lesson in which we will all as a group go through the scenes we captured today.
