Production of An Apple A Day...

Filming went well for most of the shooting days, starting with the first day of shooting, which was carried out at Livvie's Nan's house. The main location was the kitchen and the back garden where the apple trees were located. The weather that day was dry and sunny, meaning the continuity throughout the film should reflect in each shot. We had one chance to get each shot perfect as the process of making the crumble can't be paused or stopped, unless we started the process again. Luckily each shot that was taken was perfect and exactly what we wanted and imagined in out storyboard. When interviews were take the sounds in the background would need to be simpler to that in the other shots considering the speech is being overlapped over the top of the acting scene. The second day of filming took place in and around the area of Churchill, England; making the connection of a rural set continuous throughout the film. Most shots went well, we had some trouble having access to film in certain locations because of owner rights to them, however we were able to find suitable locations where we could film our shots.
We had some issue at the location of the 'pub' where unneeded voice over was current when filming the walking scenes. Members of the public voices were heard over the top; which would have been alright if the conversation was spontaneous as it was seem natural, however the conversation was related to our filming process and we felt this would not fit in with the aim of the film. Third day of filming took place at Sixth Form where we found a unused quiet room where we could interview students with their personal view on the subject of apples. We wanted the ambiance to still be heard in the background of the interviews so we were able to do this by opening the window and having the interviewee stand on the outside, letting the natural sounds to be heard by the camera. Overall i feel that the filming process that was undertaken went really well and we were able to get the shots that were needed with little mistakes.
