Task 10: Filming (branch outtakes and attempts)

For these shots they were to capture the branch hitting Kyle from behind. With this version of the shot we attempted a close up shot of Kyle whilst slightly looking up towards him as the branch appears over his shoulder however with this version Kyle was unable to tell when the branch hit him on the shoulder therefore unable to act out a reaction plus when the branch is in the shot its hard to see as it blends into the background of tree leaves not making it feel effective enough from that angle . 

In this shot we tried to over compensate the angle of the shot by tilting the camera further upwards towards the sky in an attempt to minimise the tree leaves in the background however we couldn't keep the camera steady enough to move back at a quick enough pace therefore Kyle ended up being to close to the camera meaning he was concentrating on the camera again meaning he couldn't react properly because the camera was to close even though we could see the branch this time.

In this shot we tried to capture the run up to the hit with the stick. To do this we tried an over the shoulder shot instead with Kyle holding the camera in front of his shoulder and then me this time dressing up in Kyle's clothes to make it look like he was in 2 places ,however with this attempt I didn't know the timing for the shot and how fast i should be swinging therefore i swung too slow making it look to gentle. 
  

This shot was the final shot and similar to the last in how it shows me running up behind Kyle. in this shot i ran much faster and swung the branch in a more believable manner almost hitting Kyle in the process. Nevertheless this shot was successful in being a over the shoulder shot whilst Kyle walked on forward whilst give a long shot from behind in order to see my approach upon Kyle .

This scene is set after the previous shot of Kyle being hit by the branch and depicts Kyle up close at first and then in our finish and final shot we had him walk off into the distance , however in this brief shot we realised that the camera wasn't high enough and that Kyle had forgot to put his hood up which would have wrecked the continuity if it wasn't noticed.
