For our interview with Mr Scully we used a pocket HD camcorder and a tripod. We filmed around Heathside School one thursday morning before break time so that there wasn't a large number of students around. We started filming by the bike sheds as we had previously got footage from a fire escape showing a shot from above where you can see the largeamount of students that gather there at the end of the day. He answered our questions and we moved onto other parts of the school. After gaining a large amount of footage we were happy with the interview and thanked Mr Scully for his time.
We then added the footage onto the MacBook onto iMovie. We then stabilised the clips and
edited them together. As we find zooming on the cameras is quite jumpy we used the Ken Burns tool in iMovie to zoom in some of the clips.
Alot of what Mr Scully said was really good but we felt too much of just him talking could bore the audience. We added a fade into a panning shot during his speech to add something different. The fact that Mr Scully changes location rather than being sat in one seat in one shot for the interview also makes it more interesting to watch. To split up the interview we felt another interview with a student regarding the topics Mr Scully discusses was needed. We also decided music was essential for this section.
