The beginning of filming...

After we created our synopsis, we then went out and carried some audience research to get a grasp of our target audience and what they want out of a trailer. The results of this research will be posted in due course.

After we had generated results, we went on to further developing our storyboard and starting our filming. Myself and Alex Lay travelled to the shoot location and brought with us our HD camera along with tripod and wheels for the tripod. When we arrived, we browsed around the premises looking at locations which would be very visually effective. After much thought, the shooting started with one of our actors, Louis Palmer who plays Mickey Stanton.
When filming, we made sure we paid attention to detail and kept a bucket filled with water on site in order to damp the actors body and face occasionally to create the tired and hard worked look.
Our first session of filming went very well and we got key shots including the all important establishing shots done. Now it was back to the classroom, time to digitise our work so far and start putting it into final cut express.
