Filming

I began Filming today for my documentary at the Dunvant ground. I managed to collect footage of shots I had planned in getting. One of my ideas was a pan across one of the stands and I managed to achieve this, along with a shot of the goal posts. I also got footage of a rugby game being played.

A problem occurred during filming, the camera was displaying messages that the battery was low, even though I had charged it for a few hours the night before to avoid this problem.

All together I managed to collect 14 videos, and hopefully enough of the game to use as filler. Though I did not manage to question anyone as my plan was to do the interviews after the match to try and have an after match theme to the interviews.

Though these problems occurred I have now arranged to re-do the interviews at a training session on Thursday the 5th of April.

Although these difficulties came up, my experience filming at the club today was a good one. Many people were interested in knowing what I was doing and a few offered ideas of interesting and different things to film at the club. I look forward to returning to the club to finish off my work, and a different setting will give me a new opportunity to get footage of the team training as well as playing during a match meaning that I can now have more variety in my collection.
