POV 2nd Shoot (possible final footage)

After getting feedback from Rosie, we felt it was right to go out and shoot again for our final project. Our first POV footage was too 'student like', as we set it in a student house. We needed a scenario that was even more simple, and that could reach out to a wider audience, and not just students at university. We did not need a complex narrative, as we want to focus more on the visual and educational side of our projects, so we decided to record a simple dog walk. This allowed us to keep the narrative simple, however there were still sounds and interesting objects/textures we could focus on in the park/street setting. 

I helped come out with a route we could take as well as recording the sound. (I also provided our main actor, Walter the Dog). I used a small portable roland like microphone and recorded footsteps, the environment, pebble sounds and more. I recorded them separately rather than with the footage on a DSLR so we could separate and distort the sounds more easily. 

Really enjoyed this shoot, as compared to the studio shoot it was more relaxed and we could experiment more with the POV shots and photography. Although it was slightly difficult to film some of the time as animals can be very unpredictable, the photography and footage came out very well, and I can not wait to see it manipulated and put into the interactivity programme.
