Account of Filming

 Day 1:
Our first day of filming went to plan apart from a few difficulties. We filmed in the underpass close to York College, as the setting for this was perfect for our Urban style video. We added a few extra shots in this area as we were experimenting with what looked good and swapped some shots around to create a better finished product.
We then went on to film in the city of York. We had originally planned to film inside “Fantasy World” a fancy dress shop in Fulford, York, but we were denied access to this area and had to use a plan we had thought of as a back up, which was the chase along side the river, and the scene on the “York City Walls” As we had this as a backup plan we had involved another actor which was not listed as we presumed we would not have to use it.
Day 2:
 On our second day of filming we were in Wheldrake, York. We arrived at Chris’s house at 11 O’clock and started filming right away. We stuck to our plan on this day as we encountered no problems throughout the day. The first few shots were shot outside of Chris’s house, there were no problems here as the road we filmed on was quite so we weren’t disrupted by lots of traffic and members of the public.
In the second part of the day we were down a country lane and in a forest, we had no problems here although we added scene filmed out of the back of a car, as we had the resources and we all decided it looked good.
