Filming Journal: Day 3

Filming Journal: Day 3

Day 3 was another day I organised, it was dedicated to a photoshoot with a photographer, who would hopefully give us some tips on how you can trick your way in to looking thinner on camera. One dificulty with this part was that we enitially planned to film with a photography student from UCA. However since no one replied to my emails that plan went away. Fortunatly I had a backup plan and had connections with some photography students at MidKent Collage. They happilly agreed to be part of our documentary. 

We stuck with the same location outside the UCA campus since it was a great place to film with good structures for an interesting backdrop and provided both shaded and well lit areas. 

This section all went acording to plan we filmed the entire photoshoot but due to its length we realised that it may end up being more effdective as a montage than a full piece. Our photographer gave great tips and tricks when it came to looking slimmer in photos and we had sufficient cut aways to provide examples. We also ensured to film a short intro and outro allowing our presenter to express their thoughts and address the audience. 
Later that day we headed down to Chatham high street to get some "Vox-Pops" of the public who could hopefully give us some opinions and stories about ther experiences with fad weight loss diets and techniques. We asked them about the craziest weight loss hacks they've tried. However this section was dificult as not many people would concent to be on camera and when we did acheive some interveiws it began raining. Overall this section wasn't very effective and we may end up cutting this and the slimming vest section to save time and keep our documentary as effective as possible.
