4th day of filming - 15/11/2010

After today we are now coming up to the final stages of filming and the completion of the task. Today, we filmed the picnic scene (the first chorus) where the male character runs into the Gorilla and his love interest having a picnic in the park. Again we used both a camera to film the shot and a tripod in order to keep the camera still and allow for tracking shots to be made. Overall, the shoot was successful however; we had a problem with the lighting as the glare from the sun made it hard to see the miming. We overcame this problem by reconstructing the scene and moving each character around. Again, like previous days of shooting we have tried to stick to the storyboard, which again proved a big help as it enabled us to get the shots done quickly and efficiently. The main element of the scene is the slow motion banana feeding. However, after filming it we have discovered we might not have enough time in between a verse to place it in. Therefore, we might alter it slightly and keep it in normal time.
