Second Day of Shooting

On this day again we where filming in the practice room. This was a good thing as it meant that we knew what we where dealing with and where able to work to the best of our ability. We thought that it would be the best idea to do all the shooting handheld, we opted not to do this on the first day because we thought it may be too intrusive and may distract people, but on the second day we thought that the people would be used to the camera being in the room (which they where).

Having the camera handheld meant we could get a lot closer to the action and actually get with in it. This was clear when we  watched the footage back and you could see the difference when compared to the first days shoot.

In this rehearsal the students where singing the same song a few times, this meant that we could get good footage easily. The first time they sung we took a wide shot and let it record the whole thing, we also made sure that the sound recorded the whole song. The times after that we shot close up and other interesting shots, which means that we could get a variety of shots. shooting this way means that we have have the complete sound recording and a various amount of different shots to cut to.

Once we finished shooting the footage was again uploaded and then I decided to sort it. I again created subclips from the long takes and names each piece of footage individually.
