Filming: Day 4

Today we had aimed to get almost all of the filming completed and therefore we would have all the footage we needed to create our teaser trailer. We had travelled to Waterloo where we wanted to get a range of different shots in a different location. We had chosen this location for the final part of filming as we felt there were many different areas that looked very different. Firstly, there was a very modern area next to the river which in some way matched the style of buildings in Canary Wharf. Secondly, there was a much more old part which had cobbled streets and dark alleys which we had used to get some very mysterious and sinister shots.
Our first task when we arrived was to travel towards the river were we wanted to get some shots of myself and another member of my group in different places around the river. One problem with this was the fact that there were a lot of restaurants and shops around this location which resulted in a lot of people. The meant that we had to spend more time trying to get the shots we wanted. Although the amount of people was a bit of an issue we still were able to get some of the shots we wanted and also obtain some more establishing shots which we had not planned to shoot.
The second part of shooting for the day was located in the more rural part of Waterloo. This location had older derelict buildings and gave a much darker feel than the other location. We had aimed to shoot a lot more shots as we had not shot in this type of location before and also it was far easier to shoot here as there weren’t as much people. Many of the shots we took were mid shots of the characters posing. They were very quick and showed the differences in location well.
