Preliminary - Filming

Filming the Preliminary 

When filming our preliminary task, we found it difficult to locate the correct room, as the setting of our footage was originally going to based in classroom, we chose to use a room which we pre-booked in the English block. However, after we started filming, we realised that this location did not particularly fit the content of our narrative. We came to the conclusion that a kitchen location would add to the verisimilitude of our narrative. As we decided to switch rooms, we chose to re-record some parts in order to stick  to the continuity of filming for example dropping the cup on the floor, if we did not re-record this part, the close up of the cup would have been on a carpet floor, and the long shot would have been a laminate floor. 

We decided to use a tripod when filming, as at first we hand held the camera, which resulted in shots that are rather unsteady shots. By using the tripod, it made our shots looks more stable and to professional standard.
