  • 1. Filming OurDocumentary Pets at Home By Melissa Edwards & Hannah Mealor & Eve Blakemore

2. Filming in the pet shop, we took it in turns to film different parts of the petshop for our cutaways getting as many shots as possible that will match theinterview that was set out. This was all hand held camera work and used avariety of shots such as panning, zooming, tilts etc. What went well was thatthe animals were very active and we were able to get exciting and entertainingshots for example the parrot dancing. What didnt go so well is that because itwas hand held some shots were shaky. During this we used the HD kit. 3. When filming Mr Warren with his love of chickens and other pets, thesepictures show us setting up making sure he is in the right place, we decidedit would look better if he held one of the chickens which we did during theinterview. We did a variety of shots such as a medium close up and a mid-shot. What didnt go so well is that he look towards the camera a few timesso will need a lot of cutaways. What went well is the mise-en-scene and thecamera shot. Melissa filmed the interview while Hannah was asking thequestions. During this we used the HD kit. 4. We all went to film the breeder, while Melissa and eve set up Hannah wentthough the questions with him. We filmed him in his house in his ownliving room were the dogs he breed were born.
