For the final 10 minute filming I was unable to attend the filming for the city shots but went along to the days where we filmed around the Devonshire Area. We had to revisit this a number of times, after many tutorials and changes to our visions for the film, we felt we had to keep improving the footage that we captured. There was so many quirky and interesting parts of the area to film, from vintage shop signs to paintings on shop windows and friendly messages to encourage the community to have a good day. We had a lot of footage to look through after many days filming in the Devonshire Quarter and found it hard at times to choose which we had to keep out of the film; or it would be too much footage in a short space of time.
Due to our film being on a more poetic approach, Sarah as cinematographer filmed many parts of the area through different angles and I asked to have a go filming some of the scenery. I was keen to experiment with different angles and filmed various signs close up as well as buildings from a wide angle shot. I was surprised and very happy to hear compliments from Hannah and Sarah about how I was holding the camera so still. I was surprised as I have filmed scenes before with quite shaky hands and the others felt some of our footage they had filmed at the beginning of the project had a slightly shaky image. This boosted my confidence a lot with filming and felt more involved on set rather than having to wait until post-production to fulfil my role.
