Filming Process

We arranged to film Saturday the 21st January, we first ordered two coats and a pair of gloves from amazon for under £50. We then borrowed a boom mic, a digital audio recorder and a S60T Stabiliser from school and used a canon G25 that my partner already owned. We met our three actors in Paternoster square where we had planned to film our opening shot, at 2:30, so we would be able to film through the golden hour. We at first encountered some problems as we were told we were not allowed to film there, or on the millenium bridge, our other main location. However, this ended it up working in our favour as we realised smaller, quieter, back alleys would suit the mood of our film much better than the busy millenium bridge, as these would be a far more likely place for an attack to take place. It also helped us avoid getting other people in the film which would make the continuity hard to keep and we still managed to get a very cinematic shot of St Pauls in the background of the girl crossing the road.
