As I mentioned in the previous post, as well as the Snorricam shot in 'Wake', we also liked the panning shot. Today I decided to have a trial run to see how it will work. Using my brother's skateboard, the flip and gorilla pod, and my brother, I did a few takes with some rope tied to the skateboard in our conservatory, which has a really flat, smooth floor.
It took a few takes for my brother to take it seriously, but the final take is what we're hoping to achieve. The only problem is that the drive to Alice's house, which is where we are filming it, is very bumpy and won't look good in the final thing, so we're working on things to put underneath. Otherwise this should work well, and hopefully up the marks!
Great practice shots - don't forget about the cardboard for underneath the skateboard - smooths it out.
ReplyDeleteNice looking blog! Why the move to white on black??
