We have decided to film our video in two parts, filming each characters shots on separate days. This is due to our busy schedules and finding time when we are all available to film.
On our first day of filming we decided to film all of the business mans scenes. We started at 10.30am and decided to start filming from the end of our storyboard and going backwards as it made sure that we would not lose daylight before getting around to the outside scenes. The first scenes we shot were the car and street scenes. These scenes were probably the most complicated scenes to film as we had to take health and safety into account because of the moving vehicle. We chose a quiet street to film on and assigned one of us to be marshall, to stop any other traffic and to keep members of the public safe. To get the desired shot we drove the car towards the camera at a slow speed before quickly moving the camera out of the way. We ensured that the driver of the car go slow to maintain safety at all times as the shot could be dangerous. Another problem we had was to maintain the idea that the driver of the car was actually the business man, which it wasn't due to the actor only being 13. Therefore, we took many shots with him sitting in the car whilst it was stationary and plan to inject these clips throughout the scene.
After we had shot all of the car and street scenes, we began to film the scenes outside the house. Once again this was due to the amount of daylight we had. We had to take this shot many times due to the position of the sun and the glare it had on the camera lense but we did manage to get a successful shot. The rest of the scenes, which were all inside, were relatively easy to film. Shots such as getting out of bed and working, were all pretty simple and didn't require much time to perfect. This meant that we concluding the business man's scenes at approximatly 4pm.
