Cambridge Portfolio Week 7 3/28; Recording Problems

 I would like to talk about the problems that I have had during filming. Particularly, I want to talk about the time of day and the way it affected my filming.

When I had come up with the idea for this film having a yellowish tint, I forgot that there would be trees. These trees produce a lot of shade, and they make the film look less barren than I thought it would. Trees kind of make the shot look a bit more lively, which is not what I'm going for.

 

I said previously that I would film from 4-7, but that makes it too shady to film. Instead, I tried to do it from 12 to 2, and got better results.

Another problem outside is that there were cars. Sometimes cars would move in the background, sometimes people, and sometimes scenes would be inconsistent since a car that was there before wouldn't be there after.

For example, in this video I had to cut off a bit because a car was coming in the background. Also, there was a very bright truck with people moving in the background that would not go away, so I had to film it somewhere else away from my house.

I am almost done filming, I need 1-2 days to finish and I can use the rest of the week to edit, which won't take a while. Once I am finished editing, I can work on my reflection for my remaining time and submit it.
