Today I was involved in work experience filming a promo video for Little Sprouts, a company that using cooking lessons as an engagement tool for people and individuals from any background who may have disadvantages in their life. The promo was being made as part of a competition to win a sum of money to help the business.
Once we were there for the filming, we split into 2 teams. One team filmed the cooking lessons while the other filmed interviews with everyone. I was on the interview team. One by one, we got members of staff and members of the program to come and speak about what Little Sprouts is and how it helps them/how they are involved. I did camera work for the interviews, working with Rhys who was sound operator and Kane & Chloe worked together overseeing he interviews and asking questions.

Today we filmed at the Tees Cottage Pumping Station to gather footage for the River Tees Rediscovered project we are working on. This project is being made to promote all kinds of businesses, places and events along the river tees. Taylor, Chloe & I arrived at the pumping station at 11:00 and we filmed until 16:00. We were given a tour around the station by the volunteers and we filmed in every room to make sure we had a huge variation of footage to choose from. Taylor and I shared the camera work on this shoot, switching between, just about, each room.

Today was the first day of editing the River Tees Rediscovered footage. I got the footage from the pumping station off the SD card and began to put it together into a 30 second promo piece. Each member of the class put together a 30 second piece which will all be edited together to make a final, full length promo.
