Filming - 19/01/16

Today I did some filming to redo some interview shots that didn't go so well and to get some new shots and interviews to give the audience an insight to show the audience a different side to the interviewee.

 Overall, there were no technical problems with the equipment but i had difficulties with the boompole which I discovered was broken when filming, as well as difficulties with the camera tripod with which made framing the shot difficult as well as making sure the mic wouldn't fall off the boompole. The scenes in the book shop went smoothly and we were able to do it quickly with no problems on the shoot, although I discovered some of the shots were quite shaky.

Planning - equipment

The equipment I will be using to film the interview will be the same as the previous interview (Panosonic HDC TM700) so there is continuity in the camera quality. In addition to this, my interview also requires quality audio and lighting in order to achieve a good product. To control the audio I will be using Rode NTG 2 and the boom pole, in which these were also used in the previous interview;

Planning - lighting and sound

In the outdoor location shots, I will use natural lighting and so no artificial lighting will be required. In the bookshop location, I will depend on the lighting inside the shop and for the interview location (Jess' bedroom) I will use special lighting on tripods in which will help adjust the lighting quality in which i can adjust the lighting to create the right tone and mood;

Because its a small room I will only need one of these lighting rigs. To get the right lighting effect, I will shine the light onto the ceiling so it creates a good mood and effect.

Planning - Costume and makeup

The costume Jess will be wearing will be normal, everyday clothing to show that she is a normal member associated in society. To keep the continuity in the interview shots, she will be wearing the same outfit as she did in the first draft of the documentary;

In addition to this, in the outdoor shots she will be wearing warm clothing (coat, scarf, etc) as it is cold at this time of year.

The makeup she will be wearing will be similar to what she wore in the previous interview for continuity purposes. 

Planning - location

The locations I am using for re-filming are both indoors and outdoors. In terms of interview location, I already have consent from Jess Sharman, as I am using her house for the interview location.

My second location will be at the Old Hall bookshop in Banbury. These shots will be used to show the personal interests of the Cosplayer to show the audience she has interests other than cosplay. I have got verbal permission from the owner of the shop to do this.

filming schedule and plan

On Thursday the 28th of January I will be filming interview shots and also in an outside location. I will be filming in the local town, Brackley, and I will be doing a wider variety of shots and angles during the interview including;

- Medium long shots
- Medium close ups
- side angles (filming from either the left or right of the interviewee) 

It will take place after school from 3:05 up until 7:00pm. The locations will include the interviewees bedroom (for the interviews), the streets of Brackley and The old Hall bookshop. For this filming session, only one of the previous interviewees, Jess Sharman, will be needed.
