FILMING

I participated in the whole of the filming process. First of all we started off by filming a voxpop for our documentary, but the first issue we had with filming this was the framing of each shots, and this meant having to re-do filming for each person of the voxpop. After attempting to film a voxpop atleast 3 times, we decided to cut the vox pop out of the first 5 minutes of our documentary and not use it at all. Instead we replaced it with an interview with Jon Dutton about his raido show which he promotes on facebook. The two images below are of the filming process and the mise-en-scene when interviewing Jon.

We also filmed in the library of Weatherhead High School as we needed cutaways for our interview with Jules Hatchard as she talks about girls using the internet inaproppriatly in school, so we got shots of girls in the library using computers. We had no problems when filming in the library, as the shots we where getting where only for cutaways.

We then went on to film more cutaways in the common room of Weatherhead High School, as we wanted to show how students use different technologies in school such as laptops, mobiles, ipods etc and this would therefore be encorporated into the genre of our documentary.

Whilst filming the interivew with Jules Hatchard we had to re-take the filming 3 times. The first time the framing was incorrect and, we as the interviewers, where also positioned incorrectly as when Jules would look at us she would be looking upwards instead of directly next to the camera lens, which would be seen in a typical documentary interview. We also had various problems with microphones as one we used did not work, and this caused more trouble as we had to postpone the interview just to get a different microphone to use. However the third time filiming things ran smoothly as we had learnt from our past mistakes when filming the interview.
Below is evidence of the mise-en-scene with the Jules interview

We went to a local area in Wallasey, called Liscard, and filmed cutaways of people using various technologies in the street, mostly the use of mobile phones. This was to exaggerate the main question of our documentary, which is, is everybody becoming obsessed with using the internet? And as people can now use internet on their mobiles, we wanted to show this through cutaways.
Below is evidence of me and the rest of my group filming in Liscard forcutaways for our documentary.
