Pre-Production for Architecture

Production Log

12th October:
I did some research on the architecture of my favorite places in London, Covent Garden and had a rough idea of what I wanted my video to look like. On the same day, I headed there to start filming for the first day.

13th October:
This was the second day that I was out filming. By the time I was finished, I had gotten shots of all the historic buildings I had done research on.

Location Report


 Location: Covent Garden
Address:  Bow St, London WC2E 7AU, UK
1st impression of location: Covent Garden is filled with plenty of history of the architecture of the market and buildings and is a beautiful setting for an architectural video.
Lighting: This location is well lit, which makes for excellent filming. Bright natural lighting was also available, which is considerably helpful. 



Sound: While filming, noises from restaurants, shops, people chattering, and music and entertainment could all be heard.

Sound problems: There were not many sound issues as most of the background noise went well creatively with the clips that were filmed.

Pre-Production for Fashion

Production Log


2nd October: 
I made sure to start my planning for this video pretty early so that I could have enough time to film and edit my work. I started by drawing some detailed storyboards to have a clearer idea of what I wanted to shoot in order to put my video into a more clear perspective.

3rd October:
I was able to start filming this weekend while I was out in Oxford Street. Just some basic setting shots and also in store shots too.

7th October:
This was the second day of filming for this video. This time I traveled to Covent Garden to take more fashion relate-able shots that would hopefully make my video a little more interesting.
