What we had to think about before we filmed

We had a to think about a variety of things such as;

• What day and time of day to film
• How to use the camera
• How to set up the tripod
• How we were going to create the best and most effective shots
• How we were going to make the filming look like it was a political thriller - Mise-en-scene, camerawork, cinematography, lighting, sounds etc.
• How we were going to edit out unwanted noises - such as trains and other people filming
• How to choose the correct and most suitable location for our political thriller

For many of the above points we learnt how to deal with them in our Children's Film unit.
