Filming- Day five

We decided that day five would be our last day of filming if we could get enough footage. We decided on our last recording day in the studio that we would all go back to Alexandra park on our lunch time as it was when Ruksana and Raees were free as well as us. We decided to go back there as we thought the over all setting was really good and thought that it would look great for a love story video. We took lost of shots and filmed them walking together up the steps. We filmed them from behind, the side, close up of there feet, and also a long shot of them walking in the distance. We also thought of random shots which we thought would look creative. One of them filming a close up of there hands going together and one with there hands pulling apart. We decided that we would use this and create it as like an animation.

We decided to use the tripod a lot as we didnt like the hand held camera effect which we did previously as we thought it looked to messy and unprofessional. Like the Ellie Goulding song we liked the way we did some abstract filming so we thought it would be great to link it in. We filmed Ruksana and Raees hugging near a tree and he is also singing to her, the setting also looks good as we filmed it in Autumn and the leaves make it a lovely colour in the background. We continued to take lots of shots of them so that we had enough to use for our video which would fit in at different places.

We also filmed them on benchs laughing together from high angle shots and low angle shots. We were really pleased with how natural the shots looked and we thought the fact that Ruksana and Raees were boyfriend and girlfriend made it a lot easier as they were completely comfortable about portraying the love story. Although we used lots of ideas which we had planned before, we had also thought of lost of other ideas which had come together from experimenting with the camera.
