GO OUT INTO THE WORLD AND DO GREAT THINGS – WEEK 8

Week 8 has seen us experimenting with different B-Roll exercises. One in particular where we went out in groups with a DSLR camera and aimed to shoot things that could potentially be seen as atmospheric or ambient and used in documentaries as overlay footage. On top of this b-roll has to be something that can be seen as a ‘visual metaphor’ and without this, documentaries would be very bland. I went out with Asha, Bliss and Ruby to see what kind of footage we could gather. It was a really rainy day which was kind of perfect in terms of shooting atmospheric footage. We got some shots of rippling water in puddles, close ups of rain drops on leaves, out of focus shots of people walking in the distance etc.
