My day shooting my Video

Now that I have began my editing, I have mroe time to write about experiences that I had during filming my video and also the planning leading up to the day. Organising the cast wasn't as difficult as I thought it was going to be. Two of my close friends agreed that they would be part of it. One of them is a GCSE Drama student so I was confident that he would pull it off and the other was just a friend willing to give it ago. However, as it got closer to the date, the friend told me that he could no longer be available so I ahd to quickly come up with an alternative. Luckily, someone was available. A friend of Sams who also is a drama student, very kindly volunteered and that was finally sorted.

I had some difficulty setting up shot in the beginning, as my location inside was surprisingly very dark on the camera. But I soon resolved this by using my iPhone with the flash to make the room seem lighter.

The weather was perfect and just how I wanted it to be on the day so I had no problem with that. It was damp, grey, dreary and cold which gave a great atmosphere that fitted well with my script.

Looking for the right building took some time choosing, as there was many of them where we were. The interior of each of them were very similar and the one that I finally chose was because it showed the most light and the most sinister setting.

Overall I was pleased with how the day turned out :)
