The Sweet Deal - On Location Filming

 

I wanted to make the work about applying the skills we learnt in the last few days, and I would argue we are the only group that accomplished this correctly. As our brief explicitly stated, we had to follow the 180° rule, this is something that I wanted to carry forward, which is why other groups had fancy films whilst ours actually stuck to Fergus' instruction.

My original plan was to make a Squashies advert, however, after discussing it with the team, we decided it would be funny to do a mock drug deal between Harry and Elliot using those same Squashies I bought with me as a prop. Once again it helped that I came prepared for the shoot as otherwise we would have been stumped.

The shots I got as the director got some great feedback as well, it seems the depth of field was well utilised and I was able to get some focus pulls as well. Without this, I think our group would have not stood out as well as it did, and some of the shots I shot today are the most beautiful I have ever shot.
