Task 9 Filming: Behind the scenes Images from when we shot the film


This first image is from when we was filming the opening scene and Callum, our cameraman, was checking that the camera was functioning correctly and focused correctly to ensure that filming went successful. We made sure that Joe (Subject: X) stood about as far away from the camera as he will be during the chase scene to try and make it perfect. As well as that, we was planning on using this image of Joe (from Callum's perspective) to be part of our online campaign should we run one which we'd intend to do provided it was made into a full feature film.








The second image is a zoomed in image of Callum holding the rig we used to stabilise the camera and planning how he will track us as we turn one of the corners during the chase scene. The camera used is Callum's own as well as the rig we used to stabilise it, we used this camera to achieve a better quality recording which will further enhace the quality of our finished film. This shows how we routinely practised every shot shooting taking them and how we came prepared to film rather than just 'getting by'.







The third picture is of Callum, Ryan and Joe. You can see the use of a tripod to stabilise the footage and the 'data cell' is the main focus of the camera shot. This was took in the medical room we used for the second half of our opening sequence. As well as this, you can see that from the angle of the camera, this shot never made it into the final film thus showing how we scrutinised. The reason that it didn't make the final cut was that we felt it slowed down the pace of the film and didn't fit in with the narrative. Finally, you can also see how had to film some extremely awkward angles due to how confined we were within the medical room.



This image is of our primary location and the establishing shot that you see at the beginning of the film. It's a large church that we felt carried a feeling of awe that we wanted to convey to the viewer from the get go. Therefore, we deemed this location as the best one to use as it was extremely close to us and we required no permission to film there making it perfect for our film.
