Our Progress And Problems I Think We May Encounter

So far we have struggled to finalise details on such things as the music and the setting as we have found better ideas for these two things. I feel that the problems that we have encountered so far are not just a minor hiccup in a flawless plan, i think that there is more to come of things like this as i don't feel like everything is going to go to plan and that in the end we are going to be able to properly stick to the storyboard. We have no fear of editing the idea of our title sequence in order for it to work, we as a group understand that the sotryboard is merely a plan of what we want to do for our title sequence and that this plan can be altered and changed at any time that we may please so we will not hold back if we need to change something or if there is a better way of doing it.

At this moment in time i feel that there is nothing left to plan and that we are now ready to start shooting our title sequence. We have changed around the location so that we are now more equipped with the tools that we are using and we now know that the dolly may work in this setting, however we are still cautious of it. The next thing was s a group are going to do is shoot all of our shots in our storyboard for our title sequence, the benefit of it being in one setting is that we do not have to move around and also that we can shoot all of the footage that we need to in one day.

There are many problems that i feel we may encounter when doing our first shooting of our title sequence, first as i have mentioned above although we have chosen a new location to suit the equipement (dolly) that we are using, i still feel that even with the lamonated flooring in the new setting that there may still be a problem with filming especially using the dolly as i think it will jump when moving the camera around the room. We are unsure yet on how we are going to make this better or prevent it from happening, we as a group are just hoping that the camera will not go up and down when filming and that it will stay steady, however if it does jump when filming then we may have to re-think a few of our ideas and see if we can come up to a solution to this problem. The only other problem that i think we may encounter when filming is once again to do with the dolly, but a different aspect of it this time. Until today we had never seen what the dolly that we are going to use looked like and we now realise just how big it is. The size of the dolly is a real problem for us as we are now unsure whether it will be able to maneouvour 360 degrees around the couch in the center of the room at our setting. If it does not work out then once again like the previous problem we will have to think of a new way of filming it or perhaps using a different setting that has a larger living room with a sofa in it.
