Yesterday we began shooting our establishing shots and 5 random people in Liverpool St. We arrived after 4 o'clock which meant we had limited time before the sun set to get some good shots.
We started by filming our establishing shots getting a few clips of the passing traffic. However, we found that our shooting time kept cutting out only allowing us to film roughly around 4secs of footage. This problem slowed us down dramatically and left us loosing out on time for filming.
Annoyed and confused we searched for answers finding this clip on YouTube:
Still not giving us any answers we asked other people who had camera's what the problem could be, but still no idea. Almost on the brink of giving up the camera FINALLY started allowing us to shoot longer footage which allowed us to get some really cool answers from passers by about dopamine. Surprisingly, lots of people we recorded knew what it was which is what I didn't expect. We also got some really funny answers which will work really well when properly edited.
(a bit of footage of us trying to get some passers by lol)
Once we viewed the footage on the computer we found that the sound wasn't too great which left us in a little bit of a predicament. The answers we had were so good but the sound really does let down the footage a little bit. This could possibly be because we did not have a microphone as well as all the background traffic. Also, we discovered that the establishing shots which we planned to speed up in editing were waaay too short to do this as there was not enough footage, which is another set back for us. Hopefully we can re-shoot this, however with the weather being very dark and dismal it may be hard to get some good footage.
Today we plan to shoots Ms Lewis who we will interview for some insight in dopamine and what it is. I shall post another evaluation of today's filming later!
