Establishing Shot

Overall we probably spent much more time on this shot than any other and everyone was involved to try and make it smooth.
This was one of our first attempts:



It's obviously too fast, too shaky and we realised that the camera should linger on the shoe before Alix's hands came in to give the audience a chance to take it in.
In order to make it smoother Liam held the camera at the start and Matt stretched out his arms (so that he didnt have to walk) and Angelie stopped the camera as Matt's arms swung round so that the shoe would be properly in view.

This was the one we used in our sequence:



It's a lot smoother but in our final sequence we did slow it down and we cut off the shakey bit a the start where it lingers on the river because it's too wobbly.
