For our experimental film we used a large variety of different cameras as we wanted to our film to have different layers and tones to it that combining material from multiple lenses could give us. It also gave us more freedom as to where and when we were able to film. For example, some of the footage was filmed on my phone, as it is something I carry around everywhere with me and meant that I could film where ever I was. Other parts were filmed on DSLR as Dan and Ivan both have their own cameras and they were able to film sections whenever we needed it, or if we wanted to add something to the footage we already had. Ivan also hired out a fish eye lens which we used to get a more unique perspective on various aspects of what we were filming.
We spent a lot of time on our edit, as our film is mostly montage so the sequence of the clips was very important. We cut between clips in a way that showed each bit was connected to the following part of the film, and we parts of the narrative we had filmed we interspersed throughout the length of the film.
We wanted to get quite a lot of variance in our colours, and the fish eye lens that we used for some of the footage captured some really vibrant tones and shades that really made the films more aesthetically pleasing. For example the blue of the late evening sky in this clip I really liked, and it's one of my favourite frames.
