Production Meeting; Possible Problems


Today we began our storyboard for our thriller and came across some possible flaws we might have in filming certain shots. We tried to work out how we could create a 360 degree camera rotation around a person sitting on a chair. At first we thought that simple walking slowly would work, but it wouldn't be a smooth shot so we discussed the idea of putting the camera on a 'Scaletrix' track or train tracks, but then noticed that it would be difficult to get the camera stable and even if it did work, there would be background noise as the car or train went round the track.

 
We decided to try out as many different solutions as possible to see which one would work best. We could use office chairs and push the camera and cameraman slowly round the chair, or use an industrial sized wheelie bin and sit the camera and cameraman ontop of it and push that. We will also try just walking around the chair to see if, with a steady had, that would work.
