Location Scout and First Day of Filming

This Monday we went to Chester to scout out locations we may want to film in as well as to get some preliminary cut away's for our documentary. We had already done some research before coming to the location so we knew of a few shots we may want to get, thanks to http://www.chester360.co.uk/attractions-in-chester.htm
We thought the best locations would be, the Amphitheatre

 The Cathedral

 Queens Park Bridge

The reason we chose these locations are that they establish where the documentary is set as well as them being aesthetically looking places. We also want to shoot Hannah in and around these areas, to give them context within the documentary. Along side these, we also want a mixture of shots of Hannah doing normal everyday things such as going shopping, walking around or even just doing work. We also have discussed potentially filming her doing some charity work/ money collecting around town to show her participation in raising money for brain tumour awareness.
Monday's shoot went really well, it gave me a chance to familiarise myself with the camera and test out some techniques I can use when filming the rest of the project.
