Review of filming day 3

Filming Review- Time Lapse

Schedule for the day: 5th December 2017

1:15 Arrive at the location to film 
1:20 Set up tripod and camera
1:30 begin time-lapse
2:00 Finish filming 

Time Lapse: 
A time lapse is a video technique where the frequency at which the frames are captured is much lower than that used to the sequence. Therefore, when played at a normal speed,time appeared to me moving faster. We replicated this technique by filming a still shot for 10 minutes, then speeding it up during post production to X3000. This gave an effective time lapse shot. The idea behind this was to portray our character to be isolated. He is shown to be amongst a large group of people, yet is still alone.This works well within our teaser trailer as we wanted to show how the trials of the deeply embedded steriotype of masculinity often isolates men from society due to the struggle to conform.


Shown above was the final shot for the timelaspe. This worked well as our actor is framed right in the centre and there people are shown to be passing either side of him,yet still ignoring him. We thought this was a good opportunity to layer the typography on top to ensure the message portrayed is just subtle.
Overall this filming day was very sucessful. We completed all fiming within our time schedual and we were pleased with the result of the shots we captured.
