We have encountered a lot of problems during the shoot. Even after we planned out the shots and transitions during the storyboarding process, there are still things that are difficult to control on the shoot and thus hinders us from getting the shots we want.
Weather was a big problem as we arranged a day with the female runner and the male cyclist but it was raining very hard on the day so we had to call it off. Everyone became very busy for the next two weeks and propounded our schedule. The final shot in Borough Market near London Bridge took the longest, because the actress was very busy but she was already in the tracking shots which we did at the very beginning, so we could not replace her unfortunately. However, when we finally managed to do it, the result came out great.
In conclusion, the process of shooting itself was the most time consuming factor. By taking on two extra projects made it even less manageable in the end.
Below are examples of the live footage we shot on different locations.
As we anticipated, the street was very crowded with a lot of delivery trucks most of the time. After evaluating the shots, we decided to change the transition of the shot and the sports being animated in this shot. So we went back and reshot it.
This is the footage from the reshoot. For this shot itself, we had to stand there for a couple of hours in order to finally get the takes that we are satisfied with.
After we shot this footage we decided to have archery for the previous shot and thus had to come back and reshoot this one as well, allowing the arrow to lead the audience into this shot.
This is the one that we decided to use in the end.
