On friday 4th March we managed to finish off the rest of our filming. Jack, Abi and I managed to find the time to go looking for the perfect location in which we could film Milo running across the countryside, we needed a long tracking shot of him running and had planned to do it from the boot of my car. As it was the first time Jack managed to come along, he took part in directing these important shots. The location we chose in the end was 'Back Lane', a countryside road with rare oncoming traffic, this was the perfect spot for our tracking shot as it allowed me to drive withouth any other traffic but was also safe for Milo to run along.
Jack sat in the boot whilst I drove at a slow enough speed for Milo to run close behind, these shots should hopefully look very effective. Once our tracking shot had been filmed, we filmed the scene in which Milo climbs up a tree and sits watching the sun go down. We managed to find a tree that was easy to climb but also had a great view of the sun, Jack and I filmed many establishing shots and ELS of Milo on the tree, whilst Abi took photos that should hopefully look good enough to use as poster ideas. I felt friday went successfully, we managed to get all of our filming finished and organised ourselves quickly managing to finish before it got dark. Once it did eventually get dark, we went back to our main setting (being Milos home) and re-filmed the duvet scene in which Milo hides under his duvet. We felt our first shots didn't quite portray Milo the way we wanted them too but they were also a little too dark.
Both Jack and I shot a variety of shots from different angles and sizes, Abi sorted out the lighting making sure it wasn't too dark but also not obviously artificial as this would effect the realism.
