Filming - Day 1

Today we started filming for our opening sequence. We had planned to film on three days and each day filming something different. Today we filming our opening credits which went really well.

We stared of by filling a glass bowl with water and dropping blue food colouring into it to create a cloud like pattern. We did 3 takes on this as the first one didn't work, the second one made a weird sound when the syringe entered the water and the third cloud was too weak and didn't make a big impact. The final take was amazing! The blue cloud entered the water gracefully and fast. The cloud then started to rise up and cover the whole bowl which will give us enough space to put the actors names.


This is what the third cloud looked like, it wasn't very powerful and was quite dull. Although we didn't like it, it still was useful as we was going to give up but imagining it being more blue and big made us carry on and create some really good footage that even we thought looked professional.







These pictures are of Hannah being submerged in water. We really liked these shots as her hair looked really majestic and unique which is what we want our opening sequence to be. We filmed many scenes using Hannah under water and we used one of our groups  hand and arms to look like someone was washing her. Most of these clips were successful and will feature in our opening sequence but some won't and that is either because it didn't look right or we had made a mistake (talking in background, shaking camera or shadows in the way).
