Filming: Day 5

On this day of filming we had wanted film in two different locations, Kennington Park and Mansion House Station. This day of filming was a lot more structured than the other days that we had filmed as we had specific ideas as to what shots we wanted. This day of filming would hopefully be our last and therefore we will have finished the overall filming for out trailer.

The first half of the day was spent in Kennington Park. We had wanted to film a scene whereby the main character and the boss were having a secretive meeting. We had chosen this location to film as we felt this location looked very natural and the very green surrounding of the park meant that are characters stood out more due to their very dark costumes. The scene involved the boss sitting on a bench reading a newspaper on his own and then the main character suddenly arriving and sitting beside him. As the two characters had the conversation we had positioned the camera from two different angles taking into account the 180 degree rule. This would mean that the audience would clearly see the two characters in the scene.

As you can see in the images below two members of my group had a lot of fun at Kennington Park.

The second half of the day was located around the area of Mansion House Station. We had wanted to get some action shots of characters running and we had felt this was a good location due to fairly quiet side roads that this location had. We had shot this particular chase sequence from a number of different angles which we would hopefully use in the final edit of our teaser trailer. Another reason for this chose location was the well-known Millennium Bridge which was located nearby the station. We had wanted to get some establishing shots from the Bridge and from the surrounding area which we had felt matched the rest of our footage well.
