For the beginning of our opening scene we decided to film in Richmond park. We decided to film Chester and two of his friends cycling around Richmond Park using different camera shots to create a faced paced scene just before it goes down hill and then gets run over.
We had the idea of getting lewis to cycle behind us whilst filming so we could get shots like in the music video
'Rudimental - Waiting All Night ' and how they haven't used a tripod to get still shots. But when we looked back at the shots we realised that half of the takes weren't even looking at us cycling they were looking at the floor so we just decided to keep with the cycling idea for the beginning scene but instead of filming it in Richmond Park we would film it in an alley way near one of our houses so we could get Toms mum to drive the car so we could make my death more realistic.
For our film we wanted to have a stronger beginning instead of Chester walking on a beach and then gets a phone call from his grandparents say that his parents have just died. We came up with the idea of Chester and his friends on bikes having fun doing what teenagers do going around the park and then suddenly his brother or friend gets hit by a car so the connection between the two will be stronger.
We filmed this scene in an alley way near our friends house. We would film us going down they alley from different angles and from different heights, so then when we come to editing we can use fast paced cuts to create tension just before Chester's friend gets run over by a car. We are going to shoot the same scene multiple times from loads of different angles and places so when we come to editing we can use fast paced cuts to build up the tension.
