Final Shoot - Proper

Friday the 11th of March sees our final shoot. We reviewed our footage and were more than pleased with everything but the ending, the 'Cheyne Walk' shots which involve Lewis running into an open field whilst being chased by the baddies did not make the cut. This was because the shot itself was not perfect and it gave the impression Lewis escapes (an event we do not wish to reveal to the viewer in our opening)


We therefore needed to film a new ending after deciding our unused, existing footage was not suitable. Instead, Lewis came up with a POV shot of him backed up against a tree before turning into an onrushing James. This shot would be followed by a blackout and subsequently the title 'The Witness'.
He was inspired by a shot he created in a previous media project. We were all very excited with his idea and the teachers signed off our equipment during todays lesson. Filming will take place tomorrow morning and then we will capture and fit in the shots to our sequence.

Lewis' idea was inspired by the shot on 47-49 seconds.
