As it is half term Jenny and I for saw that we would be able to accomplish a large part of our practical coursework as there was loads of time to film however it would seem the opposite! We had issues finding times for our actors to be available together due to this we decided that our coursework cannot come to a standstill and we would have to make some major changes in order to try and make the most out of the time available to us.
The first thing we changed was the actors, instead of having a male and a female we chose to use Jenny's Dad and her younger brother as they were available at convenient time and were very reliable. Due to the change in actors it seemed relevant to change location. The location changed to an office at Jenny's dads work, the setting seemed perfect as it was very realistic and represented the perfect idea of a work place.
Ad 1 originally had the male and female character gazing into each others eyes however as we are now using two male actors it seems slightly uncontroversial to have them gazing into each others eyes, this also would narrow down our target audience which is the opposite effect which we desire for our ads. The ending changed to the male actors throwing away the evidence they had gathered, in order to get the right shot we filmed this from many different angles.
Throughout filming we did notice that we were having trouble with the lighting however we overcome this by being efficient so the light didn't change too much over the time we were filming and we also used the light on the camera. Another issue we had was with the camera constantly focusing itself, we learnt that this was due to the constant change with the lighting. We realised that lighting is a very difficult thing to get right!
All together filming went well and we we have got all the shots we need, just editing and other touches to go .
