More Location Recce



This is a video I took whilst doing a bit more location scouting for our film. I did it to basically give a better idea what the area we are going to film in is like, which sometimes is hard to tell in photographs.

More Location Recce















Here are the photos we took for our new location for the film.


After filming our 2-minute film, we went through it and edited it as best we could, but then ran into some problems. Firstly, as it turned out our location wasn't quite right in the end. It did look the part, but it looked quite amateurish, so we decided to film it again. We eventually settled on an outside location for the first bit of the film, and so we went and took some more photos. Secondly, we found that our footage was only a minute and twenty seconds long, which is a slight issue, so we would have had to of filmed the it all again anyway.
