Final task: production update and plan

 Every day during this half term I have been working on my final task and I have a clear plan set out for the filming of it. During Sunday and Monday, I plan to gather all the remaining establishing shots I need for my documentary. I plan to edit these before, in between, and after both interviews.

In regards to filming the interviews, I plan to film them on both Wednesday and Thursday this week, therefore allowing me to have time to review and edit them. I am confident I will be able to finish gathering all my footage before the end of this week, and I am confident enough that I will have had enough time to do a first draft of an edit. 

For the first interview, I plan to travel to Alexei's house for the interview, just like my preliminary task, however for my second interview I am still deciding where to film the interview, I am more pulled to the idea of filming it at my house as in the kitchen its very open and encourages open discussion, I also wouldn't have to travel to her house with all my equipment.

Overall, this is the first establishing shot that really stuck out to me, I really like the use of the ide shot within it to show the whole setting. This is the sort of style of establishing shot that I would wish to create. I believe it really creates a sense of calm among the audience. ...
