Blog 6 filming day 2 outdoor

For the 1st vlog video, we went around Causeway bay in the malls and tried to film as naturally as possible. However, it became clear that it was going to be difficult to shoot scenes in a public store during the afternoon as causeway bay is such a popular and crowded shopping destination. Therefore, we were only able to shoot during the evening to night hours. Thankfully, most of the stores around Causeway Bay had very late closing hours and the shops we choose to go into to film were well lit and we didn’t have much problems with the lighting as originally thought we would have. I had also tried to film people naturally using their phones in crowded areas and found great difficulty as most people would try their best to avoid getting filmed.


An expected problem that we found was that we could not properly capture the voices of the actress in a public setting as there would be many people talking or music playing loudly in stores while out on the streets, even during the late hours of the evening time, there would still be noise from cars and buses that prevented us from being able to record and lines smoothly. Therefore, I had decided record the lines separately and insert them as voice over into the film when needed.
