Filming blog

So our first day of filming was on Wednesday. We started by filming Taylor dribble a basketball. After a few seconds of dribbling she would slam the ball on the floor. The ball would then would switch into a soccer ball. Then Brandon would dribble the ball and kick it. We moved to our next sport which was football. For football we used to different camera angles to provide a better view. The first view was an over the shoulder shot, then a normal eye level shot along the side line. This the only time we used two angles for the commercial.

After we had done all of that it was time to pack up. So we ran inside so we can dump our footage. We got every dumped and were ready for the next time we have to film. Unfortunately both Taylor and I were not present on Friday. So we could not film that day. We fell behind and on Monday Taylor was not there. Now since she wasn't there it was up to me to finish my part. I not going to lie it was very difficult. Trying to film yourself is something that is weird. I never thought I would ever do something like that.

I ran so much that day and it was so hot. For the filming I filmed me throwing my jacket and me running on the track. For me throwing the jacket I did in the same place Taylor was dribbling the ball. That way it can turn into the basketball she caught. For me running the track I set up the camera on a tripod behind me. This shows the starting line and the start of me running. Then I set the tripod on the field to get a side view of me running. Then I reshot them a couple times to get it just right. After I felt happy with it I went inside and dumped the film. But the school computer weren't working with me so I had to put it on my google drive.
