Filming Our 'Legal Alien' task

We arrived at Richmond Park on 24/2/10 to begin filming. We had to make a few adjustments to our original plan a few hours before filming. For example, we wanted to film in the evening but because we were filming in a public National Park, there were no electrical devices that we could use to plug in our lighting facilities. This became to be a big problem because we needed lighting to enhance the dramaticness of our project. I thought about changing location to somewhere closer to electrical devices so that we could use an extention cable to plug in our lights, however it was raining that day and i did not what to risk anything dangerous. Therefore, we decided to stick to our Richmond Park location and just film during the daytime and bring lanterns incase it gets darker whilst fiming. This did affect our project as a whole because we wanted to bring a mysterious, scary vibe to our movie and we were going to do this by filming in the evening. We overcame this problem by filming in the day time and edited our footage by using iMovie to change the brightness and effects of our scenes.

Treeva's role was to film all the footage using her camera.
My role was to create the soundtrack and edit it onto our film.
Myung's role was to edit the footage.
Myung and I also took on the role as the Director's. We helped Treeva as she filmed the footage and we directed her from scene to scene using our story board.
However, we all contribruted our help into all of these tasks and worked together to edit the footage and sound to create a film that was to the best of our abilities.
