Final project;
Places I was going to film at first
The Great British Library ;
The first place I wanted to film at was the Great British Library, I wanted to film their because it was pretty and very spacious. I decided not to because our intent was to have a long conversation/discussion about the topic and because the library is always busy it would be very noisy and make it difficult for people to hear us in the video. Secondly the topic we are discussing is very sensitive and some people around us might find it very offensive and try to stop us talking about it. There was one place on the 3rd floor that we could have filmed at however, sitting on the floor for over half an hour wont be very comfortable furthermore there will be people constantly walking back and fourth between the video which is very distracting.
King’s Cross Calthorpe park ;
The second place I wanted to film at was Calthorpe park, I wanted to film their because it had a very calm and quiet setting, which would definitely make the atmosphere of the video more calm and comfortable. I decided not to film their because it is winter and I did not want to stay out in the cold for a very long time. Secondly It might be awkward sitting on the bench and and they are not placed in an appropriate way to have a discussion.
Pictures of video setting ;
Kings cross college classroom ;
The third place I wanted to film at was the filming classroom at Kings cross college, I wanted to film their because the design of the room was very suitable for the type of video we are doing. Example the room has a white background (wall paper) at the end with two couches. Me and Elisa decided to film their because it seemed the most convenient. We both go to college four days a week and have the same schedules, so when we want to record we could just go here rather then having to travel to one another’s house etc.
