Fourth shooting

This weekend both saturday and sunday I filmed the second draft of my first ad. I have made quite a few changes to the last ad such as; I decided to change my location to a different part of the forest, the reason I did this was because the last location looked a lot more public than I planned as I originally wanted it to look like it was deep in the forest. I really like the new location as it is a lot more pleasant and greener than the last one, perfect for a fairy tale scene.

Another change that I made was getting more shots of the characters, last time I learnt that I didn't have enough shots of the characters faces which was important as I would want the audience engage with the characters on screen. This time I achieved this and I learnt whilst shooting that there was a lot more emotion shown through these shots which I really liked.

I believe my directing has improved a lot as things ran a lot more smoothly this time, hopefully these skills will improve as the time goes on. Overall it was a quite successful shoot, I didn't get as much filming done as I would have liked to but I am still pleased with what i achieved. As for the video itself I am still in the progress of editing it today, it should hopefully be ready by tonight and up on the next blog post.
