Introduction: Throughout this post i am going to write about when I began filming for my opening sequence piece and what it consisted of, the negatives and the positives.
Location: The location originally was going to be Thamesmeade but unfortunately there was some issues with transport so we had to change to filming local such as close by train stations and different spacious platforms to do some parkour techniques.
The picture displayed to my right is a still shot from one of the
scenes filmed for the opening sequence, its around one of the
corners of my house that i have purposely made to make it look
run down.
Photo's to my right were taken on a self timer.
Filming: To film my opening sequence I used my Canon 1100d
on recording mode capturing stills and videos using auto focus
and manual focus as i struggled getting some of the long shots
in focus. Throughout filming i did more or less every shot on a tripod, purposely adjusting the tripod to a tilt for abstract use of angles just to experiment with different ideas i had.
Mise en scene: Mise en scene wise it was pretty simple.
The clothes i was wearing was very stereotypical fitting with an
urban thug and the location around me looked as it was in a
urban area so i feel that my audience will be able to instantly
tell to what culture and lifestyle I belong to I belong to.
Lighting: When filming the weather was perfect, a strong ambient light that created good shades on the character and the set the right mood i was intending to get. Everything lighting wise went to plan and i was very happy with the outcome. But if the weather wasn't so great it wouldn't of made a difference as while editing i used black and white and motion blur so it's difficult to determine what weather it was.
