We wanted some really pretty and creative looking shots so Tom brought along his 'Camera slide' which allows the camera to be mounted and then move smoothly sideways which combined with some manual focusing in and out of focus would look really nice. We managed to collect a few shots of this style which I think would work well in and out of a trick and also some in-between shots giving the audience some background to the riding itself.
We got some cool trick sequences filmed which would work well in conjunction to the rest of the shots I had previously collected however didn't manage to film all of the tricks as we wanted to improve the obstacle/box we were mainly riding on. The improvement of the box could also be filmed from a 'POV' view which would make the 'day in the life' realistic and then the progression of building and then having fun would be more evident with this improvement. We stopped filming and collected more wood so that we could build it up in our next filming session.
We moved onto trying to film our final shot of us riding off into the distance which was difficult as we only had a short period of time to get the shot where the sun was and also people were driving in and out of the centre where we were filming making it difficult for us to get a smooth flowing shot without disruptions. We finally managed to get what we wanted which was worth the efforts in the end.
