The weather was much better on this second filming day compared to the first. The cloud cover in the sky was perfect on the second filming day and some sunlight appeared as the morning progressed. Also there were not many disruptions throughout the morning which was much better than the first day. We also arrived in advance 2 hours earlier (08:00am) than the first day of filming (10:00am) which gave us plenty of time to film quality shots before the public started to enter the car park and interrupt our filming.
We experimented with several different shots in this day 2 of filming, and we straight away got back to editing our film with this valuable footage as soon as we got back to you computers. One thing that both Robert and I found very outstanding included the image stabilisation on my iPhone 6's which gave us incredible shots for our opening sequence. However, swell as using the main DSLR camera, the iPhone's camera had a permanent auto saturation which made the footage look pretty with nice colours, but this was not what we wanted for our gritty British action film, so this will make more work for us to remove/edit when we get back to Premiere pro.
We had a couple of mistakes on our day 2 of filming, including myself accidentally walking into the camera area, as well as Robert accidentally covering his finger slightly over the flat iPhone lens which ruined the iPhone footage.
We also played around with some playful shots that involved the vehicle to 'glorify' it a bit. So due to the great weather , we attempted this with no problems, here are some examples.
Form a whole mornings worth of filming, we got some excellent footage that meant we didn't need to come back to Exeter to reshoot anymore of the first opening scene. Robert and I were much more pleased with the overall success of the day and are looking forward with the rest of our filming production.
