Pre-filming.

Thursday, 4 February 2010
We are filming today in an hours time. We have practiced with the mics and the camera, we know what sound and sight were intending to capture and what angles we intend to use. We have props and costumes which will hopefully be adequet. We intend to over film, in the sense that although we know where we plan to cut to different angles etc, we are going to film each angle longer than this so we have more than enough footage meaning we have more flexibility when it comes to editing. My Biggest influence from a filming perspective is Citizen Kane without a doubt. One particular scene where he is at the dinner table with his first wife. It is a series of clips over the days/weeks/months, depicting the progression of their relationship. As we intend to film the same scene from multiple points in time, - when they were once getting along, and later on when they arent - Citizen Kane is a huge influence.
Ill update after we have filmed on its outcome.
