On Friday 24th February, my fellow producer went on a ride along with members of Keynsham Police Station, with a camera to record some shots of inside a police car. Unfortunately, due to events that occured on this night, she was refused permission to film because the arrangement had only been for two police cars, rather than the other 9 that turned up for back up. We still have a shot from inside the car and this will probably be used as a transition.

Second Draft

So far, we've uploaded the interview footage so that now our production is at least 3.50 minutes. Now we to get inside andoutside footage of the police ride along and record some of the voice overs to match the new scenario. Our second draft will be looked at by our class on thursday, marked and leveled. Soon, the third drat will be due which will be near to completed and shown to the other A2 media class, anonomously.

After some issues with exporting the video due to sound, the video has now been exported again and appears to be working although is missing some images. Ready to show the class and awaiting feedback.

Interview

So far we haven't had much luck scheduling the rest of the filming due to various emergencies and training days the police had to attend. But tomorrow, 23rd of January, we are hoping to film the Interview door closing, an interview, fingerprints and form filling!
