First I haven't said this before, but I used my Canon 600d to capture my footage, just because it is smaller and more appropriate for some of the shots I was going to shoot namely a shot from the footwell of Harry's car. Another helpful feature is the flip out screen for shots that are hard to view from the normal position.
So I have finished my small one day shoot with a fairly good sense of optimism for the footage captured.
First of all the biggest positive was that the weather put in a good show, with a fairly red and orange sky for us to use.
I have to admit I did not work exactly to the letter of my storyboard, however for the last scene I was under a bit of pressure to finish before the sun got too low.
This may have been contributed to by the fact that I managed to leave the tripod plate on the floor for one of the other scenes. This caused mild panic and a sprint for myself back up the hill to pick it up (cue heavy breathing for the rest of the shoot).
However I look back at it with much fondness, being my first proper organised shoot with an actual notion and plan of what was needed.
Special thanks to Dannie for helping me with my sound and taking pictures, when she wasn't needed in front of the camera.
