For the start of the day we traveled around Brighton filming scenes for our video documentary. After gathering a few shots of empty buildings ready for parts of the voice over we moved on to interviewing a friend named Sid and altho he was a bit tired from where we had woken him up for the interview. However the interview went extremely well we even gathered some shots of his dogs.
After this we headed to st James street to try to get some shots of a Big Issue seller but on the way we stoped to take some shots of the police station this was funny as the police (who still haven't contacted us to give us there official stance on squatting) were very quick to come out of the station to check what we were up to. After showing them our IDs to prove that we were not terrorists we continued to st James street only to have the one Big Issue seller refuse to be on film but we did find a busker that was happy to be filmed as we dropped some change guitar case this was a very good shot in my opinion.
We then continued to travel Brighton looking for Big issue sellers and empty buildings. we found a homeless person near the train station that was willing to be filmed as we handed him some lose change this again was a good shot in my opinion.
after we returned to college we had a quick review of what we had filmed before going on to the roof of the Pelham tower to get a nice high shot of Brighton.
the plan is that tomorrow we will gather a few more shots of homeless and squatters to fill up the video and we will also have a panning shot of some information on a table this will be done in the library.
just before the end of the day we had a bit of a panic as we thought that we had filmed over the interview luckily for us this was not the case we just didn't know how to operate the cameras replay function.
