What we learnt from our walk round the crescent











Our walk around the crecent highlighted many important factors around filming. We were instructed to think about how we would shoot the opening shot of a sci-fi period drama. My first thought was to use an image of the actual cresent, but we realised that the cars and scaffolding would clash with the genre of the film, making it unsuitable unless we could edit these factors out in post production. We also experimented with lighting and position of the shots, as shown in the photos with myself under a tree. The day was perfect for this, especially in england so i count us very lucky. We would have to take into acount the weather of course if this was a different day or situation. Eventually we started looking for a different location and found a hotel in one of the cresent houses. It was much more suitable for a period drama shot because it had little of the modernity you would see on the street.
