Production Diary

7th February

Today we created the questionnaire to narrow the exact specifications of the brief, this will help us understand what is needed within the production. We have created an idea for the production of the video and have sent it off to the client. Now we are waiting for a response from the client that wil give us the go ahead to start filming. Whils waiting for our repsonse we were able to make a list of production material we will need. We were also able to begin the location list, however some locations may need to be cut. This will be determined in the response of the brief, we believe we will recieve the response within the next week.


20th February

Today we came up with a shot list with different locations to get images and videos of. We have planned to look around the selected area and find the best times and locations to shoot our footage.


21st February

Today the script for the film has been written. The Location Recce has also been done.


10th Februrary

Today we went to capture some footage of the River Thames and all the sceneary around it. However, the camera we used had some technical issues that we were unaware of until we got to the river. Fortunately, the camera was still able to capture still images and we managed get some great images of the river. The weather gave us perfect conditions to film in, so all the images we collected will look great in our film.


16th March

Unfortunately, a lot of our unfinished work had been lost to a system failure. It was not backed up so we today had to re-shoot some of our footage. On the up side, it was a sunny day and made all the images we took look much more professional. Infact, the images we took came out slightly better than our originals. We also got a few more that we didn't manage to get the first time. After taking a various different shots of the locations, we then had to narrow down the ones we wanted to use in our video. This took approximately 20 minutes due to amount of pictures we took. Then it was a matter of putting them into Adobe Premiere Pro and organising the order of the images. It's not finished yet, but the video is starting to come together.
