MS - Brighton Evaluation

We went on a media studies trip to Brighton. The purpose of the trip was a 'reccie' for a potential place to shoot our music video. Brighton could be an excellent place to shoot a music video as it is a place with many different diverse cultures. We were given a list of shots that we had to get within the time limit. The trip was a success. Although we do not plan on shooting in Brighton it was useful to give an idea of the locations that are down there should we decide to use them. The most useful part of the trip was using the cameras again and getting different shots. We hadn't used the camers for a long time so it was good to get used to them and to get back into the mind set of thinking about different shits that could be used and how we could set up the shot and how to frame it. The trip was also useful in that we were shooting with our partners. Although I worked with Nick last year on the film opening task it was good to get time to talking about our ideas and about what we thought would and wouldn't work.
When on our 'reccie' we decided to use Nick's camera. Unfortunately we were unable to edit the footage in the editing software so we shall post the footage up as soon as possible.

  1. We were also able to achieve some really good shots of our own designs, such as a shot in a phone box where we both walked in and had a conversation with each other, it would be interesting to see if we could use such a thing in our video, like a reflection, mimicking what is going on on opposite sides of the frame.
