Today we started piecing parts of our filming together. Such as the instruments with the scenes shot at my house and the town park. We did not realise how much of a challenge it would be getting the guitar in time with the song, and it was quite a challenge. However after a lot of patience and perserverance we finally managed to get it in time, and we were so happy, made sure we saved it straight after.
We also began putting the scenes together to make sure they fit to give us enough time to see if some didn't we had time to shoot more.

Today we filmed our scenes at the town park again, ensuring that I wrote the right dress so that the scenes actually fit in with the shots we had already filmed. Again luckily enough, we were really happy with the shots we had filmed.

Today we were given our evaluation questions, these are:
1) In what ways does your media product develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
2) How effective is the combination of your media product and the ancillary tasks?
3) What have you learnt from audience feedback?
4) How did you use media technologies in the research, planning, construction and evaluation stages?

Today we filmed some of our scenes at the Town Park. They went really well and we were pleased with the shots, they were well framed and just looked really good, we were both thoroughly pleased with these shots. Until of course, the enevitable happened, as nothing as gone 100% right for us, something had to happen again! We later realised that the scenes shot at my house were shot in my blue dress, and not the brown dress that we shot the scenes at the town park in today. Therefore, we have to set another date to film the scenes that we can't use today! Another lesson learnt!

Today we shot some films at my house. We decided the best thing to do would be to film each line a lot of times so that we had a lot of shots because both of us from previous experience have found that you can never have enough shots, as some may not work, or look right once you begin editing, and neither of us are prepared to be in the situation where we have to rush a shot or use one that is not correct.

Today we were all ready to shoot some scenes at the Town Park, and when we got there, just beginning to set it up and choose what part of the scene to use, it clouded over and started to rain.
This at least taught us to plan with the weather forecast from now on, and not to just go into filming it without knowing what is ahead!

Today we decided to attempt to shoot a clip in the drama studio as it was free, so my partner got his guitar and sorted out the spot light, and we began filming. We thought that it would be a really good idea to try and do a mirror shot, so I laid on the floor with the camera and angled it so that we got the camera out of shot and got my partner perfectly in shot playing the guitar.
However, once we finished and played it back we decided it actually looked awful, and just wouldn't fit with the other ideas we had for our song, so we decided to film over it!
