PRODUCTION-Going through what we've filmed

I went through the videos after the rest of my group went through it. And i made notes on which ones i thought were fine/ okay to use.
As the camera-woman i felt like sharing my opinion with what i have watched so far.

Farheen- I thought that the bowling scene, the restaurant and the library scenes were good to use. But the one i felt was very good to use was the bowling because it looks more realistic and the camera isn't as shaky as before and she's learnt the lyrics better and things were more planned than scenes like the library we were less prepared for filming. Also the restaurant scene was a last minute thing,which meant that we weren't as prepared as we should have been.


Amal- The bowling scene was good with her part of the lyrics it went very well with the setting. However The top lighting wasn't enough which made her look a little darker and it unbalances Farheen's scene in the bowling alley. But after re-filming it, it came out good and we decided to use it.
Not much of the library scene could be used because again it was our first time shooting and it didn't come out as we expected. But there are bits if the library scene that includes Amal which is good.


Kavita- I felt like trying to find scenes where Kavita is singing good and is acting well was a little hard to find because she had a bit of a struggle with learning the lyrics. Especially in the library, we can't use any of the library scene with Kavita singing because her phone was out because she didn't know the lyrics. So that couldn't be used. But then again it was our first shooting scene so it didn't come out good. However, there are scenes where the girls are sitting at a table and they are 'studying' which was very useful and is going to be used. The bowling was better than the library scene but we had problems with hearing the song from the mini speaker because the bowling alley had music of their own and there were a lot of people talking so we couldn't hear the music properly. But what we filmed of Kavita is useable and we will be using it.


Camera-woman(Me)- I felt like my job was to film all on the right angles and high enough so that i don't cut of Amal and Kavita's bits. But the problem was that there were height differences between Amal/ Kavita and Farheen and also i am short so i had to lift the camera above my head which meant that i wouldn't see what i was filming but in the end i did get it filmed and was pleased with myself. I also noticed that when we filmed our first scene in the library the camera was shaky and my hands were hurting so i kept stopping which meant i had to get use to the pain and just get on with it.
