Diary Entry 5 - Day 3 Filming

Today me and Sophiya filmed the balloon scene at Epsom Downs, right next to the race course, I think that the filming went extremely well. The weather was great to film in, it wasn't too windy and it was not raining so the balloons weren't effected when filming. This was the first time the two actors that are suppose to be a couple in our music video met and they got along really well so it was easy to get going with the filming. We found a hill where it was perfect for the couple to go up on, however, the hill was muddy and bumpy so it was quite a challenge using the dolly on the ground as we were trying to follow the couple up the hill, we managed it in the end and we got great footage out of it. We bought two red balloons and one black balloon for ONE (yes, ONE) take, so we were quiet nervous that we would have gotten the scene where the couple lets go of the balloon wrong. But we got it right in one take ,which was great as we were incredibly happy about the outcome.
