Vox Pops

Later on today, we went back to Liscard Cherry Tree Shopping Centre to try our Vox Pops again. This time we were successful.

This is the question we asked and some that were varied;

How important is your hair to you?

How improtant do you think hair is for people?

Do you think your hair can effect a person's mood?


There was no plan for the framing of the Vox Pops but we framed framed people to the left or right of the screen and the mise-en-scene of the Vox Pops was the shopping centre.

Title Sequence

Today we filmed our title sequence and we used the crane/jib for this. We used hair to spell out the letters for our documentary 'Cutting Edge' and we feel the filming went well. We also filmed the hair falling down which will be edited into slow motion to be edited to cross cut with the words being spelled out.

Vox Pops re-do

We tried filming our vox pops after our visit to Wirral Metropolitan College today in Birkenhead town centre but again it was unsuccessful, we will have to film in Liverpool as it is much more busy there.

Using the crane/jib and track in the common room - re-shoot

We had to use this equipment in the common room again because the footage we initially filmed wasn't good enough due to lack of experience. We feel that the footage we filmed this time was a lot better than the original footage. Now that this has been done we can carry on with interviews.
