Final Shoooooooot!!!!! :D :D :D :D

Another shoot at west park and another cold day... Why cant you examiners change this to be done in the summer? D: Anyway, the first thing we did in the morning was make sure we had everything we needed. I had the the grudge style creatures make up and costume on but wore the Cheshire Cats costume over the top so i could transform when i was at the park. We decided that this would be our first scene and we set to doing a shot of me climbing out of my cat skin and revealing a hideous creature. luckily for this I didn't have to keep a straight face; the make up i had on was hidden by my hair so we didn't have to re-apply my make up in the park. We started to shoot me walking after zoe with the hatter following. We soon realised that a edited crawl would be must scarier and fitting with the fact that I was still supposed to be a cat in some sense. However this was rather painful so short bursts were all that i could manage. The price of bruised knees were nothing compared to the result. With countless people commenting on how scary I looked in the shot I think we accomplished what we set out to. Next up it was Paul's turn to change he managed to change his clothes in the park and we thought a shot of him sitting would look effective. I did this shot and followed his head as he looked up smiling to reveal the dark make up and changed clothing. At this point Zoe did her running shot where we see her running from her perspective this was done by just holding the camera in her eye line as she ran. We had a direction to follow as if we just wondered in an opposite direction to zoe the edit wouldn't fit. Me and paul then wondered after zoe and filmed the chase. Part of the filming was shot in pauls view looking down at me and showing i'm still cat like. The shot after this was Alice running away but realsing she doesnt really know which way to go. Somewhere between this and the attack where i crawl up zoe she obviously fell and so we didnt feel we needed to show her falling. this wraped up that days filming ^^. finishing was amazing and getting out the cold was even better.
