Our first day of filming took place outdoors on the 26th of November (Saturday), we met up at 12 at Finsbury Park and started filming at around 1pm. Our first destination was a park around Finsbury along with some random shots of alleyways and a laundry place. At 3pm we took an hour break and then starting filming at our second location, which was in Crouchend. There, we filmed various shots of two churches and the inside of one of them. Overall, we filmed about 5 hours and finished at 7 pm.
Problems
Overall, no big problems occurred however, we were a little bit behind schedule as there was a lot of church filming to do and travelling took up some time but we stayed overtime and got everything done so it turned out fine. Also, we had planned to film inside the first church, which didn't happen but we managed to film inside the second church with the permission of the priest and we got the shots we needed in the end. Furthermore, it was slightly harder to carry around the equipment than we had anticipated so we had problems travelling far. Luckily after we reached the filming of the church filming they were close to each other.
Filming
To sum up, we managed to complete all the park, alleyway and church filming, which we will be using for the second part of the title sequence. We got a variety of shots such as a panning shot, close-ups and medium shots.
All of our group was involved in the filming by switching positions around. We rotated who filmed with the camera and held/ worked with the props. Sometimes the props would be very significant in the shot, like in the example below. The prop, being the light is moving from one end to another, which was moved manually by our group.
