Camera/Lighting
the location of this shot was in five street park in nuneaton. we chose this location because it has quite a "gritty" feel to it. the equipment we used in this shot was a dolly and a cannon 5d. the initial idea was to get a nice smooth tracking shot with the dolly. this proved to be harder than it looked as it was a really un even surface so the dolly kept bumping up and down which you can see in the footage.The white balance in the shot is good compared to the other 5d which was completely off.
As you can see in this shot the camera is really jumpy, this is because the area we used the dolly was not a very smooth surface. If I was to go back and redo this shot i would make sure that the floor was checked for small stones that would effect the shot.
New Wave
For this shot we were trying to be new wave and experimenting with different pans. they didn't work out the way we wanted because of the un even surface. The influence behind experimenting with different moving shots such as panning and tracking, is from Truffaut. This is because and the end of Truffaut's 400 Blows there is a really long tracking shot of the protagonist running. This kind of shot had never been seen before which is why the film had such an impact and deterred away from the mainstream cinema at the time. This footage also fulfills the brief as we are experimenting with different stylistic and production features of film.
Health & Safety
For this shot we had to be careful of things on the ground that could make the person operating the dolly trip over. We also made sure that some one was walking behind the person operating the dolly so that they would not fall over.

Camera/Lighting
The location for this shot was neer some private garages. the concept was to ask the actress if she gets distracted easily and film the reaction, whilst at the same time getting some cut away shots of her on the phone or playing with her hands.For the shot I wanted to get some nice hand held footage. The shots would have turned out nice if it weren't for the white balance on the camera being off which we didn't discover until looking back on the footage.
Camera/Lighting
After our first day of filming we reflected on the footage which we had took and discovered a few problems. one of which is on the Canon 600D which we were using the white balance was wrong which created this blue coloured tint on the whole shot as you can see here. To solve this we will look at the setting on a camera that had good white balance and compare the settings to see what is different.
