Filming by Esther

Today we are heading out to the Sky Garden to film Kapone scene. Which we looking forwards to. We intend to manipulate the short in order to give the audience the assumption that he's looking out of a window of his penthouse. Therefore symbolising his materalistic achievement. Which will constrat to Kwabz scene as it is situated in a South London estate home. So in a sense we want to represent the binary composition of rich and poor. And hopefully by doing this, we can achieve this successfully.

We used a range of shots, trying to show the setting from different angles, to show different elements of his body language and facial expression. Which you will see in the photos below and the music video after it's all done.

It was a successful day for us overall. We managed to gather so many shots and the poeple were lovely whiles we were filming. No one tried to bother us whatsoever. We also met this lovely old women, who waited for us to stop filming so she could talk to us about what he were doing and she credited the song. She told us about how she has a nepthew in Austrialia who also raps but she hates his music because of all the cussing and what not, but the song roses, she really did like. She said it was beautiful. This goes to show that this song really is reaching out a wider audience, as she was nowhere near our target audience range, so for her to feel a connection, it goes to show that we are doing something right.

The weather was okay, as we were in doors so we didn't have to worry about the rain and the wind. Literally, the only time we noticed how bad the weather was, was when we left the building, that wind was doing a madness.

Our experience there was alright. We managed to get done what we intended even though it was only the two of us( Esther and Tolu). However, due to the fact that the building was full of predominately white people, at times we did feel a little out of place, as everyone was all dressed up, whiles we were looking so urban and street, you could tell we were being judged. We didn't let that bother us either way, we done what was meeted and made our way out.

The area itself is so beautiful. It really is the greater parts of London. We ourselves felt like tourists and now that's saying something. The journey there was straight forward, thankfully we didn't get lost or run late, otherwise we would have missed our slot. The view was amazing, the skyline, everything.

Side note- if you want to enjoy the food down there, you best have some serious money on you, beause down there it is so pricey.
