Well, it is safe to say it was very cold! Today was the day we would film Sam (Charles) driving along on his way to the beach to clear his head and also where he sights the ghost.
Working with Sam was great! He was very cooperative and patient while me and Farhath would faff about setting the camera up onto the tripod. We got some great shots of him driving up and down and around roads and also some interior shots of him while driving (very tricky).
The shots used were a wide range of angles such as wide shots, long shits, medium close ups, close ups..it goes on. While filming out in the cold we soon got very numb hands and decided to venture into the car for his anxious expressions to be filmed, this came out to be a lot more difficult than expected...
Sam owns a small red car so fitting a camera with a tripod in this car wasn't that bad...but trying to film while holding onto the camera, mic and tripod proved to be more of a challenged and we almost risked our lives trying to capture his acting!
During the end of the shoot we was at Birnbeck Pier trying to shoot some more of Sam before seeing the ghosts but the day was fading rapidly and we could only get a few. We'll need to look over these shots as I think they might be a tad too dark to use.
Over all it was a great day and experience wise we learned a lot!
