Christmas advert

When filming the advert we ran into some problems. Our first Idea was to have one person dressed as Santa and two people dressed as elves and they would do various different sports for example football, basketball and going to the gym. When it came to do the advert we had problems with location, the location we were going to use was at Sedgefield community college where we could use there 3G astro turf. The reason we didn't use it was because the weather made it hard to film because of the rain and we didn't want to damage the cameras. Also when it came to the filming we couldn't get the actors as they were busy doing a pantomime and they didn't have much spare time. After a discussion with my group I volunteered to be in the advert and so did Daniel and ben would film. When we came to choose another location we chose Durham University's Stockton campus as it had a astro turf, gym and a huge sports hall. When we came to shoot the advert the weather was miserable so we decided to do the whole thing inside, first we went to the gym and did an hour or two of filming in there with me and Daniel in front of the camera. The next day we went and filmed the football and basketball part but we couldn't film the basketball part as there were no hopes out at the time so we started to football part and got some footage but when we came to watch, it wasn't as good as we hoped. When we went to film the next day the hall was in use so we came back to college and used the college changing rooms as they were available to use and know one was using them. the next day we went back to the hall and it was available to use so we did some more football footage and a lot of basket ball footage. we got back and looked through the footage and it was good so we could start editing, we all have our separate parts so mines was football, bens was the gym and Daniels was basketball. after we all edit our individual ones we make one will all of them in. The reason we chose to do the advert like this is because everyone else in the class was doing things like John Lewis adverts but that's not my style of filming I like filming and making fun videos as I will enjoy filming more if I like the thing I'm filming. another reason I wanted to do this advert was because there isn't many adverts like this and people enjoy and remember adverts that are fun and exciting.
