What we have learnt about filming

From filming for both our practice task and our final task, we have learnt that it is not as easy as we first thought it was going to be. Its hard to keep the camera steady, to zoom in gradually and slowly, to get everyone in the shot and make sure the framing is correct. Something we found very hard was the framing especially when characters were moving we needed to get the camera in the right position to make sure we never chopped off anyones heads.
We also learnt that filming in public places doesn't always got to plan and things like other people, animals, and weather can effect your filming.
