Initial Filming

To get a feel for how the opening would look, I took the footage shot from the 9th April and edited it together. To overcome the problem with it being too sunny, I experimented with different filters. I found that using the 'camo' filter on iMovie worked best as it made the footage darker and more mysterious. The images below demonstrate this:

I also decided to keep the diagetic sound of the car door slam, as I felt this helped demonstrate the characters superiority. However, putting the footage together has helped me to identify other points to improve upon, so I therefore made a list of things to consider for my next filming session:

- be cautious of my framing (do not cut at his shoulders, keep his head in shot)
- stick to the same rule of thirds when filming him walking through the different locations (e.g. film from either the left or right, not both)
- film more shots of the location to increase the time
- film late evening
- ensure to follow the 180 degree rule

I did not finish the sequence with credits, as I did not feel that was necessary at this stage. Despite it being far from the finished piece, and only 50 seconds long, here is a link to my first rough cut: https://youtu.be/N0j7oqs9Igo
