12/11 Practice Filming:

On the 12th I practiced filming my advert; this allowed me to understand the positive and negatives of my concept.  From my practice footage I understood how fundamental it was for the tripod and the camera to stay static when filming therefore creating good quality shots and to see whether it is technically viable.

The practice filming also allowed me to re-evaluate and refresh my memory of how to use the equipment. This is something I struggled with in AS however from my practice footage I can see that I have improved since AS and now have an improved ability to use the equipment and the editing software. 

From this practice run it highlighted how the studio needed to be set up, I am having a developing picture of a crowd growing in the back ground.  By the end the actor will be amongst the crowd and therefore within the Event ‘Imagine Fest’.  I had the conceptual ideas but really needed to see how it would look on the film; this was achieved on the 12th when I was practicing the shots and the framing of the actors.

Overall this shooting practice allowed me to achieve the skills and put my ideas into practical work on the camera, the next time I film will be for the real thing.
