Filming: Day 4

Me & Julien took the camera out overnight on a Wednesday evening. Unfortunately Seb & Jessica couldn't make it. As we were on the bus to Old Street, I decided it would be useful to have a shot of Julien on the bus, so we went to the top of the upper deck and I filmed Julien looking nervously out of the window.

At Old Street we filmed similar shots to the ones we took on the first day but at night. The street lighting and light from car headlights made the footage bright enough to use.

After this, we decided we needed to focus on the ending, as what we originally planned seemed unlikely to happen. I had an idea to use a block of flats as Julien's final destination (the place he was running to), so we filmed several shots of him running up to the door trying to get in, as if someone was chasing him. For the last shot, I filmed a low angle tracking shot of Julien from behind him, creeping up on him slowly, and ending with him turning to face the camera and looking shocked. Here are some images:





Visual Motif

This is the image we will be using in the video as our visual motif. It has the name of the artist (Masta B) and the name of the track underneath it. It will be seen in the background of our video, stuck onto walls like a poster/flyer advertising the track in the scenes which do not feature the artist.
