Welcome back to another blog! Today is the last filming blog, so I'll finish up by telling you about the mirror maze saga, and what we did to counteract it. It affected the rest of our night. As well as that, it also affected the video itself. So, without further adieu, let's get into it.
Last blog, I talked about the first half of our night, and how that went. If you don't remember, the general thing I talked about the effects of the motorcycle showcase, as well as our filming experience. After about an hour of filming, we made our way to the mirror maze.
It was going fine so far; we were filming scenes of us running towards it, and messing around with the angles and such. Until, when we went up to the person running the mirror maze and asked him if it was okay to film in there, and he said... no. No?
We did keep this in mind in case it happened, but didn't really expect it to, so we were very surprised. Not to mention the fact that he had quite a bit of attitude. But, we thought it wouldn't hurt to try and get some quick shots anyway.
We tried for the shots, but they didn't really look good; the mirror maze was small, and we were sort of rushing, so we decided to disregard the maze entirely. Instead, we kept to the storyline and its main parts but altered it slightly so we could just film around the fair.
It worked out okay, but it ran the risk of us missing some key shots. Additionally, we were already rushed on time, and this incident made us even more stressed. Finally, after filming was over and we got most of the scenes done, it was time for the final shot: the establishing shot on the faires wheel. Everything went relatively smoothly, and we were finally able to leave, finally. It was about 10:30 when we finally left the fair.
Stay tuned for my next blog where I talk about our editing!
