Today we filmed in Nottingham! It was a very successful day of filming as we got all of the shots we planned to get. All of the shops we planned to film in, let us film in them and the steady cam which we used was very effective as it allowed us to get walking shots rather than just videos which are taken from a stationary position and this makes the video look more interesting.
When we were in Nottingham we realised that we had a lot of extra equipment/bags that we couldn't leave unattended whilst we were filming. Thankfully our friends Leigh and Sophie were already in Nottingham and kindly offered to help carry our stuff so it all worked out well. This has taught us to pre plan even minor details of filming as it would've been a real struggle to film whilst carrying all the heavy bags. Despite this set back we managed to use the steady cam effectively and get some good shots walking through Nottingham looking like a couple.
Another problem we faced was that it started to rain. However we did know this was going to happen so we aimed to have all of out outdoors footage filmed before 3pm and managed to achieve this. That meant that once it started to rain we just had some inside footage in the shop 'rough trade' left to film and find't have to film outdoors in the rain as this would've affected the quality of our footage and also the overall look of it.
