Filming

In our documentary we had to film in many different places and we used different people to achieve making our documentary realistic. We did many of the filming together, however there were many times that i could not attend the filming sessions due to other commitments.
One part of the filming was to create a vox pop in the middle of our town centre (Liscard). There we stopped numerous, random people and asked them questions related to sweets, for example, 'what is your favoutire sweet?'. By doing this we got many interesting answers from them which we could include in the documentary to create realism and pace within the documentary.

We were also required to film the individual interviews.


This is Bryony filming the elderly woman interview.



Whilst creating this shot for the docmentary, we had to make sure mise-en-scene was appropriate, lighting was correct and the positioning of the camera was accurate, (eye line match being a third of the way down the screen and the interviewee positioned either to the left or right of the screen.





And here is Armarni shooting the young girl interview. It was set up in school as it was easy access to retrieve the pupil to take part in the interview, however images of sweets were created and put up as mise-en-scene behind the pupil so that it was unnoiticable that the interview took place in a classroom.


With all interviews, this had to be shot a few times so that all answers became clear without the question in front of it and so it sounded effective and professional.




A final part of the creation of this documentary was that we were required to film all cutaways that would be used throughout the production.

After all filming was complete, it was all uploaded onto adobe premiere and the editing process began.
