Documentary - First day of shooting, 'Are we Numb?'

Today was our first day of shooting. We started at Kamran’s, our presenter, house where we filmed a short sequence and recorded most of the voice over for the documentary since this was probably one of the most quiet locations we’re going to have for a while. After that we drove in to London to film the intro for the documentary and some GV’s. 

We have 3 cameras available for when we're filming, but decided to use one when we were filming in Kamran's house since we were only filming a lot of short clips of Kamran on his computer to use in a voice over sequence in the documentary. When going to London we used 2 cameras, one focusing on Kamran and doing his PTC while the other camera was focusing on doing most of the GV's. 

The day went very well although we ended up being 30 min over the schedule. Kamran was lovely to work with and the crew were very effective. George started on Camera the first part of the day whie Simon were writing a camera logg. Later when we got to London Simon was the main camera operator while George mainly were focusing on taking GV’s.

Tomorrow we’ll be heading back to London to talk to the holocaust survivors, and on thursday we’ll have a break to logg the footage and prepare for friday when we’ll be going to Birmingham to talk to the social Media expert. I look forward to the upcoming filming days and to see the documentary slowly coming to life.
