Diary Entry 8 - Filming in Brighton

Today was the day in which my partner and I travelled down to Brighton in order to film the main part of our narrative for our music video. Despite having planned this trip out to the enth degree in advance, we still found problems cropping up in our path. The unpredictable weather for a start, meant we had to film the performance section in the rain! This was very difficult for me as the camera woman and had to make sure an umbrella was above the camera so it wouldnt get wet, as well as film the footage at the same time using a dolly. The next problem was our car breaking down, which was disappointing as it wasted 2 hours of our valuable filming time after having travelled for over an hour, bearing in mind the sun sets at 4 so gets dark very quickly. After our car had been fixed and sorted, we arrived on Brighton beach with gail force winds that was blowing the camera around, depsite being on a tripod and myself holding it down to the ground. In spite of this, I believe that we did extremily well with the footage I filmed and the efforts put in by Tyra! Now we await to upload the footage tomorrow to see what we have produced.
